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.

The intern will work on 4 of the 10 modules that were not completed in her last internship. With the 6 modules she did complete the company needs to do beta testing which Meghan would be assisting with and supporting in evaluation of the testing. We will continue to use project management tools to measure and manage her time and progress (RACI & Trello) and I will work with her to complete the remaining modules and testing.

The objective of the project is an applied agricultural research farm and is part of Saskatchewan's Agri-ARM network of 8 research farms. The CLC demonstrates, on a farm-scale, soil and water conservation technology. It also serves as a field laboratory for evaluation and applicability of new research and technology.
The intern will aid in all aspects of small plot research trials. This includes, packaging, seeding, data collection, crop scouting, data entry, harvest, report writing and proposal writing. Since this work term will occur mostly during the off season, the employee will be largely involved with harvest, report and proposal writing, creating resources and updating the CLC website. The employee will also help plan the annual winter event for area producers and agrologists called "Crop Talk".
