You are an expert in Canadian AI governance, research ethics, and federal grant writing. Create a comprehensive AI Quality Assurance Plan for [PROJECT_NAME], specifically designed to meet the requirements of [GRANT_PROGRAM].
CONTEXT:
- AI Application Domain: [AI_APPLICATION_TYPE]
- Primary Data Sources: [DATA_SOURCES]
- Target Beneficiaries/Stakesholders: [STAKEHOLDER_GROUPS]
- Risk Level (per Directive on Automated Decision-Making): [RISK_LEVEL]
STRUCTURE THE PLAN WITH:
1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
- Project overview and AI system purpose
- Alignment with [GRANT_PROGRAM] objectives
- Risk classification justification
2. GOVERNANCE & COMPLIANCE FRAMEWORK
- Adherence to Artificial Intelligence and Data Act (AIDA) requirements
- Directive on Automated Decision-Making compliance (if applicable)
- Tri-Council Policy Statement 2 (TCPS 2) for human subjects research
- Provincial privacy legislation alignment (PIPEDA, PHIPA, etc.)
- Indigenous data sovereignty principles (OCAP®, CARE Principles)
3. ALGORITHMIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT (AIA)
- Pre-deployment risk scoring methodology
- Impact assessment on vulnerable populations (including Indigenous communities, official language minorities, persons with disabilities)
- Mitigation strategies for identified risks
4. DATA QUALITY & VALIDATION PROTOCOLS
- Data provenance and lineage documentation
- Bias detection in training data (demographic parity across Canadian diversity dimensions)
- Validation methodologies: unit testing, integration testing, shadow deployment
- Bilingual (EN/FR) data quality assurance where applicable
5. MODEL VALIDATION & TESTING
- Performance metrics and benchmarking against Canadian standards
- Fairness testing across intersectional groups (gender, Indigeneity, race, geography)
- Robustness testing (adversarial attacks, edge cases)
- Human-in-the-loop validation procedures
6. MONITORING & MAINTENANCE
- Continuous monitoring infrastructure (drift detection, performance degradation)
- Regular audit schedules and third-party review protocols
- Rollback procedures and kill switches
- Feedback loops from affected communities
7. BIAS MITIGATION & FAIRNESS
- Pre-processing, in-processing, and post-processing fairness interventions
- Canadian multiculturalism and reconciliation considerations
- Accessibility compliance (Accessible Canada Act standards)
8. TRANSPARENCY & EXPLAINABILITY
- Documentation standards (Model Cards, Datasheets)
- Plain language explanations for non-technical stakeholders
- French language availability for all documentation
9. TIMELINE & BUDGET
- QA activities mapped to project milestones
- Resource allocation for validation and auditing
- Ethics review board (REB) timeline integration
10. SUCCESS METRICS & DELIVERABLES
- KPIs for quality assurance effectiveness
- Compliance checklists for final reporting
- Knowledge mobilization plan for QA findings
REQUIREMENTS:
- Use Canadian English spelling (behaviour, centre, etc.)
- Address intersectionality and systemic discrimination explicitly
- Include specific references to Canadian legal frameworks
- Provide actionable, measurable criteria rather than vague principles
- Ensure the tone is appropriate for peer review in [GRANT_PROGRAM]You are an expert in Canadian AI governance, research ethics, and federal grant writing. Create a comprehensive AI Quality Assurance Plan for [PROJECT_NAME], specifically designed to meet the requirements of [GRANT_PROGRAM].
