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.

Atypical fermentation platforms for the production of value-added products from renewable sources
962071
PEI BioAlliance is leading the development of collaborative research facilities to address common manufacturing, fundamental R&D, and commercialization needs of companies in Canada’s bioscience sector. This Project will expand atypical fermentation equipment capabilities and will explore the use of various feedstocks and microorganisms on the development of value-added products. In support of the PIC Supercluster, via the Sustainable Protein Production program, activities will explore new markets and applications for total pulse production by evaluating the utility of pulse starch as an alternative fermentation feedstock to produce higher value products. In support of the Oceans Supercluster, through the Ocean Supercluster Support Program, other activities will explore cost-effective approaches to fermentation using marine anaerobic bacteria as novel sources of ingredients in the lucrative cosmetic and personal care market.
The ultimate goal of the Project is to address gaps in Canada’s R&D infrastructure to build critical mass in atypical fermentation.
