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.

Development of Czech Akawi cheese
1017656
The project involves development of a special grade Akawi cheese that has never been made in Canada. With the increased demand on baked products containing cheese from the new Canadians descending from Middle East and Mediterranean region, in addition to the increased awareness and popularity of the Mediterranean diet and lifestyle for Canadians from all walks, the demand on baked Mediterranean products (both savoury and sweets) has created tremendous demand on products similar to Czech Akawi. There are couple Canadian producers of Akawi including Chinook Cheese but non of them has the required characteristics of Czech Akawi. The main differentiation is that Czech Akawi is melting cheese that makes it ideal for several kinds of bakes.
