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.

Test Lab Project
1014566
Since 2020, there has been many unprecedented challenges in sourcing ingredients. The reason for this was due to the global pandemic. With borders shutting down, supply chain disruptions occurring, and trade becoming difficult to maintain, food manufacturers have been struggling to keep up with the demand for many raw ingredients. For Duinkerken Foods to mitigate ingredient shortages, it’s crucial to introduce a laboratory. A food testing laboratory can help ensure the safety and quality of food ingredients by identifying potential contaminants and pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses, and toxins. It will also help with meeting regulatory requirements by identifying and testing for specific ingredients, additives, and labeling requirements.
