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.

Aquaponic Food Production
1023984
CLFN are building a 1-acre greenhouse structure that will allow the community to produce 275,000 pounds of fresh Tilapia annually and a variety of greens (lettuce, kale, arugula, spinach) and vine crops (tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers) on a weekly basis. The business will produce significant job opportunities for community members during the construction of the facility and full and part-time employment opportunities once the facility is in full production. In addition, the business will produce annual profits that the community can utilize for other economic development opportunities or for expansion of the business. The new venture will require bringing in technical expertise initially to assist in training and managing.
