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.

Nanocarrier mediated anti-CD47 siRNA delivery
944745
This project involves the preparation of gene therapy transporters for the enhancement of cancer patient immune response. These delivery systems will be used to specifically target cell models of leukemia. This could help to open the door to treatments that are not as generally debilitating to patients. It is of particular interest to target leukemia which have relapsed or returned after initial treatment.

Development of new plant-based and insect-based reference materials for food and feed applications
947498
During this project, certified reference materials (CRMs) of novel protein sources, such as insect-based proteins and plant-based proteins, will be produced by NRC institutes for food and feed applications. These physical standards will facilitate the development of characterization strategies for novel protein sources. These strategies will be developed in conjunction with industrial process development so as to codify competitive advantages in quality and increase the potential for branding. Several CRMs will be developed and standards will be drafted for this new industry. To characterize these CRMs in terms of trace elements profile, speciation and bio-accessibility, the expertise in chemical risk assessment methodologies and testing of Diane Beauchemin at Queen's University will be drawn upon. Two students under her supervision will be working with Queen’s University and undertake collaborative R&D with the Metrology group at NRC.
