What Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada does

The Department of Innovation, Science and Industry (ISED) is the federal department responsible for fostering economic growth, technological advancement, and scientific research in Canada. It plays a key role in supporting businesses, funding research and development, and shaping policies that aim to enhance innovation, industrial competitiveness, and the prosperity of the Canadian economy.

How did Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada spend its budget in 2020-21?

The same net spending by program, as GC InfoBase reports program actuals: $2.85B in all. Select a program for its history, plans and results.

Workforce, 2020-21

A full-time equivalent is a measure of employment, not a headcount: two half-time employees are one FTE. Personnel spending includes benefits and pension contributions, so per FTE it is not an average salary.

Transfer payment programs, 2020-21

The grants, contributions and other transfers Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada paid, program by program: $2.26B in all, against $2.26B for the transfer payments object above (the Public Accounts publish the two tables separately).

Contracts of $10,000 and under

Contracts this small are not published one by one: Treasury Board publishes each organization's totals, by calendar year, for contracts of $10,000 and under (their original value and their amendments) and for acquisition card purchases. They are the value of contracts entered into, not what was paid in a fiscal year, so they are not part of the net expenditure above, and the years are calendar years.
