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.

Haliburton Forest Biochar (HFB) has been developing novel biochar technology and new markets for biochar for seven years. The purpose of this project is to scale current processes and continue the advancement new high value markets for biochar. The project addresses the major hurdle of the lack of supply of high-quality biochar in Ontario and lack of a high-value market for biochar through scaling a commercial high-performance biomaterial replacement for fossil fuel products in the automotive foam and construction sector. To achieve these HFB is seeking to increase its internal engineering capacity to support optimization of existing process and designing and installing new processes.
