Fisheries & Oceans Canada - Disclosure of Grants & Awards
« on: August 25, 2009, 09:07:45 AM »

Found an interesting page on the DFO website: http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/GCSC/index_e.asp

This page outlines the number and amounts of grants and other transfers of goods or services made to individuals and organizations.
(click on the 'Reports' link)

By my quick count, DFO gave away $44 million dollars in the first 3 months of 2009.

Lots of non-information on that site. Any idea on how to tell what the grants were used for? General categories like used for First nation initiatives,Salmon farming and stream rehab or local hatchery. Some totals for those differant categories would help most get the gist where the money went.
