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.

Reducing foodborne disease by salmonella control via artificial intelligence networks (FooDSCAN)
948226
Salmonella causes the majority of foodborne outbreaks associated with low moisture foods. Approaches to destroy Salmonella in low moisture foods are designed to reduce the concentration of Salmonella in the food by 5 orders of magnitude. However, in certain cases, due to the physical and chemical characteristics of the food, a 5 log reduction may not be possible. In such cases, it is necessary to demonstrate that the concentration and potential growth of Salmonella is low enough that a 5 log reduction is not needed.
The objectives of this research are to investigate the growth kinetics of Salmonella and Enterococcus (a non-pathogenic surrogate used to validate antimicrobial treatments) in low moisture foods including walnuts, sunflower, and wheat, by developing microbial survival data of the Salmonella and Enterococcus in the three foods, to develop predictive mathematical growth models that describe the behavior of the bacteria in low moisture foods
