A. For all provinces except Quebec and British Columbia & Yukon, the Grant-in-Aid (GIA) award a researcher receives from the Heart and Stroke Foundation must be the major award, for the proposed research. A researcher must not accept or be in receipt of a GIA award that is more than 50% of the amount provided by the Heart and Stroke Foundation for the proposed research. If a researcher is offered two major awards they must decide which one they will accept for the proposed research. With the exception of Quebec and British Columbia & Yukon, the Heart and Stroke Foundations will not “top up” awards. In Quebec and British Columbia & Yukon, researchers are allowed to hold major funding for proposed research, with a “top up” from the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Quebec or British Columbia & Yukon.
