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.

Improve formulation based on commercial feedback & regulatory requirements
1004836
New School Foods has created it’s first product - a plant-based fillet of salmon that looks, cooks, tastes and flakes like fish. The firm is ready to start external taste tests with professional chefs. The feedback from those chefs will help us improve our product as we prepare for our initial launch. We have also identified some regulatory restrictions on our ingredients that must be slightly modified in order to proceed with our commercial launch in the US. This project will help us reach our commercialization targets in 2024.

Optimizing Lab Formulation for Commercial Release
992235
Our team has produced a compelling prototype, photographs, and the product has good texture (empirically proven through TPA & rheology) as well as features that validate the key benefits of our production technology. However, additional R&D is required to make the product market-ready for customers. Significant amount of effort is required to fine-tune the product's organoleptic properties, measured both empirically and through our human taste test trials, identifying and addressing shortcomings related to taste and texture.
