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.

Process Scale-up Development of Fermentation Technology and Data Model (Platform) for Shelf Stable Fermented Beverages
1007991
The Project will support the development of intellectual property capacity within Kulture Rebellion (KR) for a fermentation platform which includes a proprietary commercial-scale fermentation tech and recipe generation data model. The beverages are shelf-stable without pasteurization or preservatives with lower operational cost compared to traditional beverages. They are also made in popular flavours appealing to consumers and with gut-friendly properties. there are environmental benefits of this fermentation tech in the form of significant reduction in embodied and operational carbon emissions. In addition to enabling KR's own line of fermented beverages, this platform enables 3rd party producers to create their own innovative flavours.

Germany ZIM - ''ReactionSurf'' - Development of a new antibacterial active layer for in vivo titanium alloy applications.
1007288
To keep the risk of infection low and prevent implant rejection, antibiotics are administered to patients during and after surgery. However, antibiotics mainly affect infections that occur in the period immediately after implantation. Hematogenic or late infections cannot be prevented by this treatment. This is where the present research project comes in, with the aim of developing and testing antibacterial coatings on implants.
