The Centre for Particle Physics (CPP) based at the University of Alberta (Alberta) is a unique national research resource (CPP+) that enables and facilitates the effective access of its users to a number of major international resource centres, namely: BNL, CERN, JLab, the Kamioka Observatory, the South Pole Neutrino Observatory (SPNO), SNOLAB, and TRIUMF. Since its last MRS application CPP+ has seen its program further expand, strengthen and diversify. In addition, the Subatomic/Astroparticle Physics Group at Queen's University (Queen's) is exploring the possibility of joining their MRS resource, which provided for the National SNOLAB program, with that of CPP+ or other groups. This initiative is built on existing strong collaboration and would add to the pool of skilled and experienced technical manpower, as well as technical infrastructure, that would be available to the national and international user community. It is envisaged that a formal partnership could be in place for the 2014-2015 granting year, when the current Queen's MRS would be up for renewal. The CPP+ is truly a unique organizational centre of a national consortia based around its cutting-edge, up-to-date and comprehensive technological, manpower and infrastructure resources. This CPP+ national consortium now directly involves as co-applicants: Alberta, Queen's, the University of Regina (Regina), the University of Toronto (Toronto), and York University (York). The set of user groups associated with CPP+ is much larger, and includes collaborators from institutes in Canada and around the world, including the major research centres: BNL (USA), CERN, DESY (Germany), Fermilab (USA), Jlab (USA), Kamioka (Japan), LBL (USA); SACLAY (France), SLAC (USA), SNOLAB, SPNO and TRIUMF. Our unique national resource efficiently addresses the requirements of the groups involved providing maximum access with minimum duplication of MRS personnel capability. It provides the possibility for "load sharing" across numerous projects and, crucially, aids in the preservation of a pool of highly skilled and experienced engineers, technologists and technicians that are invaluable in maintaining Canada's international scientific standing.

位于阿尔伯塔大学（阿尔伯塔省）的粒子物理中心 (CPP) 是一个独特的国家研究资源 (CPP+)，它能够并促进其用户有效访问许多主要国际资源中心，即：BNL、CERN、JLab、神冈天文台、南极中微子天文台 (SPNO)、SNOLAB 和 TRIUMF。自上次 MRS 申请以来，CPP+ 的计划进一步扩大、加强和多样化。此外，女王大学（Queen's）的亚原子/天体粒子物理小组正在探索将其为国家 SNOLAB 计划提供的 MRS 资源与 CPP+ 或其他小组的资源结合起来的可能性。该举措建立在现有的强有力合作的基础上，将增加熟练且经验丰富的技术人才库以及技术基础设施，供国内和国际用户社区使用。 It is envisaged that a formal partnership could be in place for the 2014-2015 granting year, when the current Queen's MRS would be up for renewal. CPP+确实是一个独特的国家财团组织中心，以其尖端、最新和全面的技术、人力和基础设施资源为基础。这个 CPP+ 国家联盟现在直接作为联合申请人参与：阿尔伯塔大学、女王大学、里贾纳大学 (Regina)、多伦多大学 (Toronto) 和约克大学 (York)。与 CPP+ 相关的用户组规模要大得多，包括来自加拿大和世界各地研究机构的合作者，包括主要研究中心：BNL（美国）、CERN、DESY（德国）、Fermilab（美国）、Jlab（美国）、Kamioka（日本）、LBL（美国）； SACLAY（法国）、SLAC（美国）、SNOLAB、SPNO 和 TRIUMF。我们独特的国家资源有效地满足了相关团体的要求，提供最大程度的访问权限，同时最大限度地减少 MRS 人员能力的重复。 它为众多项目提供了“负载共享”的可能性，最重要的是，它有助于保留一批技术精湛、经验丰富的工程师、技术人员和技术人员，这些人员对于维护加拿大的国际科学地位至关重要。
