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.

ARP - Integrate canned seafood into Quebec's gastronomic culture by developing high-end seafood products

Agreement Number:

948708

Duration: from May 4, 2020 to Mar 26, 2021
Description:

Chasse-Marée wishes to improve the notoriety of Quebec marine products by responding to the need to create processed products with high added value. Convinced of the under-exploited potential of canning products, the Chasse-Marée team wishes to develop a complete line of high-end canned seafood products from products caught in Quebec. This project involves many challenges in terms of product development. Indeed, the impact of the heat treatment required to ensure commercial sterility makes the preservation of the organoleptic qualities of marine products very complex. Various analyses and sensory evaluations will therefore have to be carried out to ensure the quality of the products developed.
