Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC) is looking to reduce its carbon footprint at the Beaubassin Research facility in Aulac, NB, by undertaking a number of energy upgrades. The original building was built in 1862 and was partially renovated in 2008 but the building needs a number of energy upgrades. These include insulation throughout, attic, basement and exterior walls. The building has an oil furnace that we plan to replace with an air-to-air heat pump system. There are number of windows that are single gazed and need to be replaced with newer energy efficient windows. In a further effort to reduce our carbon footprint we also plan to install a ground mounted solar energy system. The facility is operated on a yearly basis by DUC and is used by the broader community including universities, Indigenous communities, conservation NGOs. The facility is used regularly by four Mi'kmaq communities of Fort Folly, Bouctouche, Indian Island and Elsipogtog for cultural and other special events.

The project aims to bring the building’s plumbing, electrical, and ventilation systems up to current standards, as well as stabilize and waterproof its foundations. The work also includes the restoration of the brick façades, replacement of the metal cladding, and the addition of a mezzanine and an elevator.

Specific fit-up work will be carried out to accommodate intervention and support spaces, a reception area, community-style living spaces, co-working areas, and office spaces, as well as an event hall and storage areas in the basement.

The objective of this project is to create an LGBTQIA2S+ community hub in Montreal that will provide social service organizations working with LGBTQIA2S+ individuals with optimal conditions to improve their services, achieve cost savings, and strengthen their economic and social impact. EspaceLGBTQ+ responds to a decade of advocacy efforts by providing a central gathering place for the community.

This project replaces mechanical systems and interior and exterior components that have exceeded their functional lifespan. These upgrades will improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and prepare the centre to serve the community in a carbon-constrained future. Operating since 1934, the Riverview Community Centre has undergone several renovations since the mid-90s to meet changing community needs - expanding the hall, redesigning the kitchen to support food entrepreneurship, and repurposing interior spaces for diverse users. However, key systems like HVAC, electrical, insulation, and windows no longer meet energy standards, and failing exterior components pose risks to users and staff.

The needed replacement of rooftop units (RTUs) presents an opportunity to explore energy systems that reduce or eliminate natural gas use and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

The app will deliver timely feedback, longitudinal driving reports, and personalized risk assessments, along with proactive safety recommendations to help mature drivers maintain their independence. Advanced machine learning algorithms will be developed based on a new massive longitudinal telematics dataset provided by the industry partner, the Canadian Automobile Association (CAA).
