      "Integrate artificial intelligence to enhance the remotely piloted aircraft system (RPAS)",
      "Project Auk is a pioneering initiative designed to revolutionize atmospheric data collection by enhancing LZC's Gitpo RPAS with ice detection and mitigation technologies. This project is strategically aligned with several critical objectives: 1. Environmental Sustainability; 2. Global Impact; 3. Technological Innovation",
      "LZC is developing a unique high-altitude RPAS (Gitpo) to replace single-use radiosondes to enhance the type & quality of weather & climate data collected by global WMO operations, & to eliminate a major source of environmental e-waste, polluting lakes, rivers, oceans, & forests around the world. A key element of this complex air vehicle & its integrated systems is the development of advanced flight control guidance software powered by AI. The real-time employment of Machine Learning (ML) to exploit measured weather data & wind patterns during the drone's ascent to over 100K feet while tether",
      "Further developing the dual-use atmospheric observation capabilities of the Eagle RPAS drone. The system can replicate threats as well as collect important data on wildfires data for the CSA, ECCC and for globally-respected organizations such as NASA and the US Naval Research Laboratory (NRL).",
      "The purpose of this CanExport SMEs agreement is to support small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for activities related to export market development that are part of an export business case for a specific target market, particularly where activities are targeting departmental priority markets and sectors.",
      "Through the application of national and local priorities, the CSJ program seeks to provide youth, particularly those who face barriers to employment with access to work opportunities. Funded employers must demonstrate that they are providing quality work experiences for youth that provide opportunities to develop and improve their skills."
