Tiletamine-Zolazepam use in wildlife immobilization  (2012-2022)

The Veterinary Drugs Directorate has compiled ten years of data on the use of injectable tiletamine-zolazepam products for immobilizing wildlife in Canada. There are no approved tiletamine-zolazepam products in Canada. Access to a foreign authorized tiletamine-zolazepam product is permitted through Experimental Studies Certificates (ESC) or Emergency Drug Release (EDR) authorizations. The data collected from 2012-2022 comes from follow-up reports to authorizations for tiletamine-zolazepam products through these pathways. Follow-up reports are submitted to collect information on the product safety and the effectiveness for its intended use. This dataset compiled from the follow-up reports provides general information about how the products have been used and may be of interest to wildlife conservation officers, researchers or drug manufacturers. The dataset includes the number of animals immobilized, the species, the amount of drug used, and whether there were any adverse events or concerns with the quality of sedation. The data also indicates the province where immobilizations had taken place and any other drugs that were included in the immobilization protocol. This dataset provides information on protocols that have been used in the past, but does not replace the need to consult with a veterinarian with experience in wildlife to design or update immobilization protocols.

Algorithmic Impact Assessment - LMIA Summary of Information

The Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) leverages an AI-generated report to gather data from multiple internal information sources. It analyses areas like the Business Number, address of employer, wage being offered, and checking for compliance issues or allegations. The outcome is a concise report that highlights essential details, enabling processing officers to quickly identify key factors and focus on key elements of the applications they are reviewing.

While this summary of information report assists officers, it does not eliminate the need for them to review and consider the various internal sources of information. Officers are required to examine all relevant information independently before making a decision.

Importantly, this is not a decision-making tool. It does not approve or deny applications; all decisions remain with Program Officers. Program Officers are responsible for adhering to the established program policies, guidelines, and legal requirements when processing a Labour Market Impact Assessment.

This approach underscores the commitment to a responsible and transparent application of technology, ensuring ongoing fairness and accountability while safeguarding the integrity of the decision-making process in the TFWP.

Algorithmic Impact Assessment - Electronic Social Insurance Number Automation (eSINa)

When an individual applies for a Social Insurance Number (SIN), multiple channels are available to submit their application. eSIN was implemented in April 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the first time, individuals were able to apply for their SIN online, eliminating the need to visit a Service Canada Centre in person or the need to mail in their application. The eSIN application result was received by mail.  In August 2023, a new feature was added to the My Service Canada Account (MSCA) that allows individuals to register for an account without a SIN. Once registered, SIN information can be obtained directly in MSCA.       

When a SIN application is received, documents provided are analysed for authenticity and submitted for validation against an authoritative source.  If the verification is successful, the application is processed, and the SIN is issued.   

The primary objective of the eSINa initiative is to automate the processing of eligible SIN applications submitted via eSIN by using Artificial Intelligence and Optical Character Recognition technologies. The SIN program will continue to innovate in these aspects for the coming years.  

This approach allows eligible eSIN clients to receive their SIN in near real-time via their MSCA Account and helps address the growing demand for SINs at Service Canada Centers, thus reducing Employment and Social Development Canada’s (ESDC) dependency on paper-based processes and strengthening its integrity.  

This initiative has been implemented in accordance with the guidelines delineated in the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) Directive on Automated Decision Making (ADM).  

These regulations guarantee that the integration of Artificial Intelligence in government programs and services is guided by transparent values, ethics, and legal standards.  

 In alignment with these principles, relevant stakeholders including the Privacy Management Division, IT Security, Legal Services, Data Governance and Enterprise Architecture have been engaged over the duration of this process.  

  
Please note: This process of automating SIN application does not change SIN eligibility, nor does it limit who can apply for a SIN. SIN automation will not reject an application. Instead, any potential rejection will be reviewed by an agent.

Canadian Homogenized Surface Air Temperature (CanHomT V4)

This fourth generation homogenized daily (CanHomT dlyV4), and monthly (CanHomT mlyV4) surface air temperature dataset provides daily maximum, minimum and mean temperatures as well as monthly, seasonal, and annual means of these variables, for 651 long-term stations across Canada. The procedures used to produce the dataset and to estimate long-term trends over the 1948-2023 period are detailed in Wan et al. (2025). The fourth generation of CanHomT includes two main improvements over the third generation (Vincent et al., 2020): First, an adjustment for the cold bias in daily minimum temperatures, caused by an inadequate observing window defined by the climatological day since July 1, 1961, is now applied to all stations with both daily and hourly temperature observations, including all automatic stations. Second, missing daily and monthly values, including longer gaps, were filled using the ANUSPLIN surface temperature estimates. Station data records that began later than 1948 were infilled back to 1948 for monthly data, and 1949 for daily data. In addition to these main improvements, the original data were quality controlled using more comprehensive procedures than in previous generations. To form long-term series, most station records were joined with data from nearby stations, and all 651 stations are active as of 2023. An inhomogeneity test procedure, both with and without the use of reference series methods, was applied to detect non-climatic shifts in the monthly series. A quantile-matching procedure was then used to adjust the identified inhomogeneities in the daily and monthly series. This dataset enhances the reliability and the temporal and spatial continuity of observed temperature records in Canada, enabling more precise assessments of long-term climate trends.
