Thank you for the replies!
I have applied for SSHRC this year, and my application was forwarded to Ottawa (It was my first try; in the end, I didn't get it). At the time of the application, however, most of my MA grades were still pending, meaning that I didn't have to worry about my GPA back then. Because I have been accepted into a non-Canadian institution, I will be applying independently this fall. I wonder how much they'll care about my GPA then. My GPA for MA is slightly below 3.7 (A-).
