Registered as LA FONDATION DE L'UNIVERSITE DU QUEBEC A CHICOUTIMI INC.
This is an internal division of Institut Scientifique du Saquenay Lac-St-Jean inc.. Its figures cover this division only, not the whole organisation.
$3,558,588
$2,088,031
It took in $1,470,557 more than it spent, and retained the difference. Neither is good or bad on its own — charities hold reserves, run capital campaigns, and spend down endowments, and the return does not say which.

This filing does not add up. The reported components come to $2,124,195, more than the $2,088,031 total they are supposed to be part of, so no proportional breakdown is shown. The figures above are exactly as the charity filed them. This is a data-entry problem in the return, and not in itself a finding about the organisation.
La Fondation de L'universite du Quebec a Chicoutimi INC. reported spending 63.2% of its expenditure on charitable programs. Among the 2,543 charities registered under support of schools and education that reported the same line for 2024, the middle of the range is 87.5%, and this charity sits at the 21th percentile — below 79% of them.
That is a position in a distribution, not a verdict. Charities allocate costs differently on the same form, and a lower share often reflects how a return was filled in rather than how the money was spent. The cohort counts only charities that reported this line — about a quarter of the register does not, and they are not in the comparison at all.
Canadian charities report how many of their ten highest-paid positions fall in each pay band. Not who they are, and not what any one person earns — the return does not collect that, and it cannot be worked out from what follows.
7 positions reported in total. The form asks only about the ten highest-paid, so a smaller number means the charity reported fewer compensated positions than that.
| Permanent full-time positions | 300 | 7 |
|---|---|---|
| Total spent on all compensation | 390 | $523,237 |
Charities that hold significant property not used in their programs must spend a minimum amount each year — the disbursement quota. La Fondation de L'universite du Quebec a Chicoutimi INC. files this schedule; most charities do not.
| Required to spend | 840 | $1,283,460 |
|---|---|---|
| Counted toward the quota | 860 | $1,319,164 |
| Difference | 865 | $35,704 above the quota |
Charities may also carry a disbursement excess forward for five years, so a single year is a slice of a longer calculation rather than the whole of it.
The most recent return this charity has filed — not its position today. Charities have six months to file and the CRA publishes annually.
These are the charity’s own figures. A surprising figure is at least as likely to be a filing error as a finding.
This site cannot confirm whether 129002846 RR 0001 is registered today. Its filings are public open data; current registration status is not, and the CRA’s own listing is the only authoritative source. Check this charity on the CRA Charities Listing.
