Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

AI-driven robotic ultrasound system for streamlined lymph node analysis in excised cancer tissues.
1021809
In colorectal cancer, staging is crucial for patient survival. Current healthcare systems often fail at accurate staging, leading to poor outcomes and higher costs. The process requires manually searching for lymph nodes (LNs) in tissues removed during surgery, a task that is time-consuming (30 mins to over 2 hours), expensive, and often misses small LNs, risking incorrect treatment. To solve this problem, Tenomix is developing a platform combining robotics, ultrasound, and AI to automate LN detection, making the process quicker, cheaper, and more accurate. This will aid pathology labs and improve treatment decisions. The current project focuses on advancing this technology, preparing for regulatory filing in 2025.
