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.

Foundations For Resilient American Oyster Hatchery Production and Nursery.
1041120
This project aims to improve the operational efficiency of Acadian Hatchery while enhancing the quality and resilience of oyster spat produced for the Atlantic Canadian aquaculture industry. Through improvements in hatchery production systems, nutrition, nursery development, and data-driven monitoring, the project seeks to strengthen overall seed performance and support the development of oyster strains with increased resistance to the emerging parasites MSX and Dermo. By increasing the availability of high-quality hatchery seed, the project will contribute to the long-term sustainability and stability of oyster aquaculture in Atlantic Canada.
