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.

The firm aims to pioneer the development and validation of polyploid hemp varieties by utilizing advanced breeding techniques. This effort is targeted at significantly enhancing cannabinoid yields while establishing seedless and cross-pollination-resistant plants. By achieving these milestones, the initiative is poised to address key industry challenges, namely inconsistent crop quality due to unintended pollination. The successful execution of this project is expected to catalyze a transformation in cannabinoid-hemp cultivation, leading to increased economic viability and environmental sustainability.

Dose-dependent effects of cannabis edibles on simulated driving performance
The Centre for Additional and Mental Health (CAMH) will conduct research studies that aim to quantify a dose-response relationship between cannabis edibles and driving impairment in individuals aged 19-45 years old. The project findings are critical to establish the impacts of ingesting cannabis on driving ability which has not been studied in Canada so far.
