Please note that even if all eligibility criteria are met, the submission of an application creates no obligation on the part of the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada to provide funding for the project. The Minister retains discretion to determine, based on other public policies and public interest considerations, whether an application will ultimately receive funding.
