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.

YEP - Sphaeroforma arctica, a second way to valorize microalgal biomass
972789
When extracting compounds of interest from microalgae, a significant part of the biomass cannot be exploited. In the case of stable isotope enriched biomass, this residual biomass has a significant commercial value. In order to exploit this biomass, the company wishes to evaluate the possibility of using this organic matter as a nutrient source for a second level decomposer protist, Sphaeroforma artica. This microorganism has recently been identified as being extremely efficient at recycling waste material while being an incredible source of long chain omega-3 (DHA, EPA and DPA) which are highly sought as lipids in the industry.
