It was noted that total recreational catches recorded in 1992 exceeded the total recreational quota by 13%. The discrepancy between the quota and the actual catch ranged from zero to 23% ... Attention was also drawn to the discrepancy between angling catch estimates by traditional methods and catches estimated by the bus route creel survey method on the Humber River in 1992. Catch estimates based on the creel survey suggest that catches were actually twice as high as reported. These results question the utility of traditional catch and effort statistics collection methods in quota monitoring and in evaluating the effect of the closure of the commercial fishery on recreational fisheries harvests. 2, record 1, English, - bus%2Droute%20creel%20survey%20method

Il a été noté que les prises totales de la pêche récréative de 1992 étaient supérieures de 13 % au quota total de cette pêche. L'écart entre le quota et les prises réelles variait de 0 à 23 % [...] On a aussi fait ressortir l'écart entre les estimations des prises de la pêche récréative faites par les méthodes habituelles et celles faites par la méthode du relevé des prises par itinéraire utilisée en 1992 pour la rivière Humber. Les estimations des prises basées sur le relevé des prises donnaient une valeur correspondant au double de la valeur signalée. Ces résultats remettent en question l'utilité des méthodes classiques d’obtention de données statistiques sur les prises et l'effort pour le contrôle des quotas et l'évaluation des effets de la fermeture de la pêche commerciale sur la récolte de la pêche récréative. 1, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20du%20relev%C3%A9%20des%20prises%20par%20itin%C3%A9raire

Charities can and do charge fees for their charitable programs, but when their fees are high enough that they exclude those in need of the service or provide a return above the break-even point, it raises the question of whether their purpose is indeed charitable. A key to identifying whether a training business or social business is a charitable program in its own right (as opposed to a potentially "related" business) is to determine whether its focus is on helping the clientele or on making a profit. 1, record 2, English, - charitable%20program

Les organismes de bienfaisance peuvent exiger des frais pour leurs programmes de bienfaisance et elles le font. Toutefois, lorsque ces frais ont pour effet d’exclure certaines des personnes qui ont besoin de leurs services ou de donner à l'organisme un rendement qui va au-delà du seuil de rentabilité, cela soulève la question de savoir si son objectif relève véritablement de la bienfaisance. Un moyen clé de savoir si une entreprise de formation ou une entreprise sociale met [en] œuvre un programme relevant de la bienfaisance(par opposition à ce qui pourrait être une activité commerciale complémentaire) est de voir si elle se concentre sur l'aide à la clientèle plutôt que sur la réalisation d’un profit. 1, record 2, French, - programme%20de%20bienfaisance

Wheat mill run consists of wheat bran, fine particles of wheat bran, wheat shorts, wheat germ, wheat flour and the offal from the tail of the mill. Ground run of the mill screenings are normally added. Wheat mill run is available in the west, but not normally found in other areas of the country where mill run is separated into bran, middlings and red dog. Wheat mill run may have a crude protein level of 14-17 percent; crude fat, 3-4 percent and crude fibre, 8.5-9.5 percent. 2, record 5, English, - wheat%20mill%20run
