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.

Beer Cheese Process Production Automation Technology
986526
The Cheese Factory’s goal is to significantly increase and further optimize production at the current location, including expanding into an adjacent property. Automating production of the primary product, Beer Cheese is the vital element of the project that will allow the organization to meet current demand and attain significant growth. Retaining the current location allows The Cheese Factory to maintain its historic and high-profile location, where handcrafted cheese is produced. A transition into the adjacent property will facilitate expansion of the production space, the retail store and establish a small restaurant where the public can experience cheeses and other products.
