- Resource Checklist (specific Canadian funding opportunities, institutional supports)

CONSTRAINTS:
- Prioritize journals indexed in Canadian Periodical Index, Erudit, or with Canadian Editorial Boards where appropriate for [CAREER_GOAL]
- Ensure all Indigenous research recommendations adhere to Chapter 9 of TCPS 2 and OCAP® principles
- Consider provincial funding body requirements (e.g., FRQSC in Quebec, OGS in Ontario) if applicable
- Avoid predatory journals commonly targeting Canadian ECRs through false "Canadian Association" affiliations
