Supplementary Estimates (A) 2023-24

Supplementary Estimates are part of the normal parliamentary approval process to ensure that previously planned government initiatives receive the necessary funding to move them forward, therefore meeting the needs of Canadians. They present information to Parliament on the Government of Canada’s spending requirements that were not sufficiently developed in time for inclusion in the Main Estimates, or urgent but unforeseen, such as natural disasters. Supplementary Estimates directly support an appropriation act.

Supplementary Estimates are published throughout the year; each release is identified alphabetically (A, B, C, etc.). In general, Supplementary Estimates (A) are tabled in May and the associated appropriation act is granted royal assent and becomes law in June. These provide federal organizations with the funding they need early in the year. Supplementary Estimates (B) are tabled in late October or early November and the associated appropriation act is granted royal assent in December. Supplementary Estimates (C) are tabled in February and the associated appropriation act is granted royal assent in March.

Effects of brominated emerging flame retardants in juvenile rainbow trout

In this study, the chronic effects of two emerging brominated flame retardants, 1,2-bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxy)ethane(BTBPE) and 2-ethylhexyl-2,3,4,5-tetrabromobenzoate (EH-TBB) were evaluated in diet exposed juvenile rainbow trout(Oncorhynchus mykiss). FIsh uptake was measured after 28-d of exposure. Liver gene transcription analysis using RNA-sequencing was also performed, complemented by qRT-PCR to measure transcription levels of genes related to the immune response in the liver and the head kidney. Lysozyme enzymatic activity was also measured in head kidneys of exposed fish.

Research at a Glance: Community-Based Sentencing

Canadians are generally supportive of community-based sentencing; many feel that these sentences could have a number of positive impacts from reducing crime and increasing safety to greater efficiency in the criminal justice system. 

What we also found: 

After reviewing statistics on incarceration rates and who is incarcerated in Canada, over half of Canadians (55%) agreed that too many people were incarcerated (17% disagreed and 18% neither agreed nor disagreed) 

Support for community-based sentences was much stronger for non-violent crimes.
