That register is not redistributed here — it can only be searched by corporation name or number, by design, so it cannot become a lookup by a person’s name.

Public footprint · version 1

Where this organisation appears in public records

Eight independent dimensions describe the size and shape of the evidence. They are deliberately not added into one company score: a licence, a grant, a director filing and a court finding mean different things.

Footprint is not performance.

A larger bar means more public records of that kind. It does not mean better, worse, safer, larger, more profitable or more reputable.

Filed by the charity itself with the Canada Revenue Agency, under the Open Government Licence. This is the narrowest slate the source publishes — name, position, and tenure only; no address, phone, or email exists in the file to withhold. Why this is published and directors’ home addresses never are.

Organisations sharing a filed director name (22)

1 of them shares more than one name, which is a much stronger link than the rest. Those are listed first.

One name in common is a lead. Two is a link. These come from the director names each organisation filed with the Canada Revenue Agency, matched exactly as filed, and two people can share a name — across the whole corpus 95% of these rest on a single name, so a single match is genuinely weak evidence and is presented as such rather than dressed up. Two of the same names on the same pair of boards is a different matter: coincidence stops being a plausible explanation. A name appearing on more than eight boards is discarded outright as a probable collision.

The link is between organisations and carries only a count. Which people sit on which board stays on each organisation’s own page, exactly as the CRA published it, and there is deliberately no way here to search by a person or to list what one individual is involved in. Why that line is drawn there.

Charitable programs67.8% · $10.1M · line 5000
Management and administration32.2% · $4.8M · line 5010
These are the charity’s own figures. They come from the T3010 return it filed with the Canada Revenue Agency, which is a statement the organisation makes about itself rather than an audit or an assessment of it. They are also a single year: a charity that received a capital gift, sold a building, or ran a campaign will look unlike itself.

A low share spent on programs is not by itself evidence of anything. Fundraising costs money, a year of building a reserve looks like underspending, and grant-making foundations pass money onward rather than running programs. The lines are shown as filed, with the CRA line numbers, so a reader can check them against the return.

Value as published, not money paid. The federal contract value field includes the ceiling of standing offers and supply arrangements — purchasing capacity a department may never draw on. A large figure here can mean a large ceiling rather than a large payment.

Awards are attached to this record only where the evidence identifies exactly one organisation: a name and postal area that narrow to a single company, or a name unique across the whole national corpus. Proactive publication truncates the vendor postal code to three characters, so anything that could belong to more than one company is left unattached rather than guessed at. Totals are a floor in that direction. The full rules.

Why this is one record

5 public datasets from 3 independent publishers describe this organisation. They were joined into one record because the evidence below agreed — never on a matching name alone.

  • Shares business number 899034730
    asserted by Canada Revenue Agency and Corporations Canada (Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada)
  • Same name and postal code K1J 1A3
    asserted by Canada Revenue Agency and Corporations Canada (Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada)

An automatic merge requires a shared business number, or a matching name AND address — never a name by itself. How resolution works.

Freshness is measured, not implied. “Last captured” is when this project last completed a read of the whole source dataset. “Coverage kept” is how many immutable captures and meaningful capture-to-capture comparisons are available. A missed day remains an explicit gap; a later snapshot cannot tell us what happened inside it. See every source.

This page is assembled from open data. It is not an official record, and the registrar is authoritative where the two disagree. How records are assembled.
