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.

Develop New Industrial and Chemical Grade Barium Derivatives Conversion Processes
998353
BMSI is dependent on the sale of its high-grade barite, known as barium sulfate (BaSO4), to a single local market. Market analysis confirms substantial alternative international markets for barium products. In 2021 and 2022, an independent research program confirmed that BMSI can make alternative barium products, including industrial grade and chemical grade barium derivatives. A block flow diagram (BFD) processing model has been developed for full-scale production of multiple derivative products. This proposal migrates laboratory testing to start of industrial-scale planning to de-risks processing challenges
on scale up.
