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 microchip device for quantitative analysis of key components of cannabis

Agreement Number:

911697

Duration: from Sep 3, 2018 to Nov 30, 2019
Description:

This project will develop a new detection platform technology for real-time cannabis analysis. It will offer world-wide cannabis users and growers significant data analysis within minutes. This technology will use state-of-the-art solid-state nanotechnology with microfluidics to offer accurate quantitative results. Keystone Labs and the Serpe group at the University of Alberta have the required experience and expertise for the development of KEY-CHIP. The funding will be used to take the project from the prototype stage, production of device, beta testing to manufacturing and commercialization. The first analysis target will be to detect Cannabinoids; Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD) in real-time.
