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.

R&D of Fiber Based Wafer Cookie for Human Markets
901923
Targeted lifestyle interventions are the safest and most economic approaches for both prevention and treatment of obesity, exhibiting potential for multi-faceted health and metabolic benefits. Dietary fiber contributes to weight control and blood glucose management through a variety of mechanisms (delayed nutrient absorption, increased satiety, stimulation of gut hormones that regulate food intake) and may also beneficially modulate the intestinal microbiota, which combined may confer a health benefit to the host. This project builds from clinical work initiated by University of Calgary and is focused on the research and development of fiber fortified products that could promote weight management and improved health of humans.
