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.

This project is a logical successor to the two other successful NRC-IRAP projects constructed over the past 12 months.
The AI language model will use the customized ESG instance that has been trained to identify themes related to the Environment, Society, and Governance pillars but only operate within that dataset, while augmenting its understanding by consulting other known data models.

New Aquaculture Growing System for Production of Rainbow Trout Fingerlings
1019386
Manitoulin Trout Farm (MTF) require approximately 5 million fingerlings annually for their existing net pen operations. The MTF owned hatchery can produce 15-17% of their annual requirements. This results in MTF depending on other fingerling producers for the remaining fingerlings. MTF plan to incorporate changes at their existing hatchery to allow for a significant increase in production of small fingerlings (< 2.5 grams per fingerling). The goal is to increase annual production from a 1.4 M egg intake to over 2.8 M eggs. Significant number of small fingerlings will be transferred to other facilities at specific times of the production cycle.
