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.

Malt Alcohol Based Beverage Development
993570
The firm has been in development, with their primary brewing equipment supplier, on a de-alcoholizer. This is a state-of-the-art technology that removes alcohol from beer. When the alcohol is extracted there are two products. 1. Beer retentate which can be re-hydrated to produce a non-alcoholic beer and, 2. alcohol/water permeate which is a flavourless, odourless alcohol water.
This project requires a full-time product development specialist. This individual will be a trained brewer/mixologist and will be responsible to develop new non-alcoholic beer recipes and create new ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages from the permeate. These new products will be marketed internationally.

High Speed Toaster
1000912
Development of a high-speed toaster using fast response carbon infrared heating emitters. The emitters are highly efficient with fast response times which can allow on demand heating as opposed to the industry standard “always on” heating elements, due to slow response times. Further to this innovation, the project is expected to take toasting to a new level by incorporating “smart” technology such as vision systems to detect product type and possibly provide automatic calibration.

Smoker Technical Feasibility Study
1000978
Based on preliminary research SureShot believes there is a market opportunity to develop an electric food smoker for consumer use. Smoking food using current products on the market can be quite complex and time consuming requiring the cook to manage many inputs. Due to its complexity, smoking is not a desirable activity for your average cook. Our vision is to take the mystery and complexity out of smoking food the way that Instant Pot took the mystery out of pressure cooking. Our product offering will have broad market appeal because we will make the act of smoking simple and hassle free while still delivering delicious food. Our smoker will be built to last and will use precision temperature controls and probes to deliver a consistent smok
