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.

Shopify Leasing Module Feasibity Prototype
913715
Shopify is the fasting growing E-Commerce product on the market, however the product lacks any “leasing” features or add-ons, and there is fundamentally no compatibility between Shopify and companies providing “leasing”.
Many companies have expressed the desire to provide leasing options to their customers but currently cannot. We intend to perform the necessary research and complete the software development required to establish solution to provide a leasing option right in the Shopify checkout process.

Towards Single-Step manufacturing of LNP Gene Therapy
913718
The goal of this project is to establish a method to synthesize Fusogenix DNA lipid nanoparticles using a single step manufacturing process. To achieve this, we will evaluate a number of methods to incorporate our fusogenic proteins into lipid nanoparticles using the Precision Nanosystems microfluidic platform. We expect that by pre-formulating one of the lipid components with fusogenic protein, we may be able to reduce the manufacturing to a single step compared to the current 2 step process. This will allow us to significantly improve our encapsulation efficiency and simplify our manufacturing process as we move to the clinic.
