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.

Formulation and Evaluation of Biobased and Biodegradable Plastics for Agricultural Mulch Film Applications
930530
TerraVerdae Bioworks (TVB) is an advanced biomaterials company whose technology is based on the use of biobased and biodegradable polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). TVB has demonstrated the large scale production of PHA and is now focused on development of PHA biopolymer products.
This project will develop biodegradable polymer and composite formulations with enhanced mechanical properties and functionality required for high valued applications. This will include development of PHA-based plastics that have controlled biodegradability, such as agricultural mulch films, where field applied films provide moisture conservation and weed barrier properties during the growing season and then degrade in place by the following spring.

General Magnetic Technology Improvements
930720
Five GMCI technologies require further development: First, a more robust electronic brake for new requirements emanating from motor re-certification. Second, a micro motor controller to optimize the potential of existing Micro PMM motor for multiple applications. Third, a 75% larger PMM Top Drive for a lucrative performance niche in the market. Fourth, a rod shear product, expanding capabilities from existing PCP to more challenging LRP applications, potentially increasing market size by a factor of 10. Fifth, a more robust dual sided gearbox enabling GMCI to remain the premier chemical injection solution for high pressure gas wells.
