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.

Development of Home-use pediatric wearable robotic system

Agreement Number:

914181

Duration: from Nov 1, 2018 to Oct 31, 2019
Description:

Trexo Robotics is building wearable robotic solutions to help children with disabilities learn to walk. Having built their first unit for the clinical market, they are continuing development to target the unmet need of the home-use rehabilitation + mobility for children.

Trexo currently has a design suitable for clinic use but not home use. The purpose of the project is to create a wearable robotic device by converting any passive walker into a fully powered robotic device that is mobile, easy to put together and stable so that it can deliver reliable gait training in a convenient home environment.
