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-3: Prototype Optimization and Testing of Cellulose Scaffolds for Synthetic Meat
977511
The emerging clean meat market is gaining considerable traction as consumers are increasingly making food choices based on ethical and environmental concerns. Plant-based meat producers already have products on sale in grocery stores and fast food chains nationwide. In addition, companies developing lab grown meat utilizing animal cells are raising significant investments and are expected to enter the marketplace in the coming years. Spiderwort is a biomaterials company which has developed novel plant-based materials for numerous high value applications, including for the development of clean meat. The goal of this project is to further refine the processes for developing 3D materials for plant- and cell-based meat.
