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 and Validation of a Novel Method for Analyzing Pathogens and Toxins Invertical Farms, Grapes, Corn and Precision Farming Operations
1019648
This project will advance the hardware, software, and methods of a novel chemical analyzer designed for measuring taste, flavour, & potency chemicals in cannabis plants to include chemicals of interest to traditional agricultural crops. The primary development under this project is the detection of mycotoxins in corn being delivered to bio-ethanol refineries & additional applications to include pathogen detection and the optimization of high-density vertical farms (e.g., leafy greens and high-value food & spices), as well as the optimization of high-revenue crops (e.g., grapes for wine production). The primary technical advancement is developing novel sampling technology and data analytics with the use of AI for spectral deconvolution.
