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.

Youth - Bioplastics research
1034381
There are more market ready sustainable material solutions for replacing plastics than ever before, but these innovative solutions are not making it past the groundbreaking headlines and into actual products. A significant barrier to entry is the fragmented supply chain and disparate knowledge for processing and producing products with biomaterials. Materia is looking to solve that, in part, through a dynamic two-sided marketplace that can intelligently connect product developers from consumer brands to the right suppliers and manufacturers to bring their product to life using sustainable materials. This project centers on taking that marketplace from a concept to a deployed software service available to empower the supply chain.
