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.

Multi-active analgesic gels will be developed that include the actives benzocaine, menthol, benzalkonium chloride, and zinc chloride. The gels will also include a novel blend of proteolytic enzymes that will help increase oral healing. As part of the development of this formula, quantitative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods will be developed to characterize the raw materials used in the formula, as well as to quantify each active ingredient in the finished product. After development, appropriate documentation will be prepared and the methods will be validated.

Enzymatic Oral Analgesics
1020996
Analgesic gels containing Benzocaine, a local anesthetic, among other potential APIs will be developed to include proteolytic enzymes and saliva producing/retention ingredients to help reduce oral inflammation for a more natural approach to healing. This benzocaine and enzymatic system, along with the proposed addition of hyaluronic acid, will aid patients post dental surgery in recovery without requiring opioid prescriptions, such as codeine. This will decrease the overreliance on opioids for post-oral surgery recovery, potentially reducing the rate of opioid addiction.
