Not in Canada

No actually I am in south east asia but indeed I am Canadian. I am very much aware that an assigned altitude is not corrected for by pilots ie. Radar vector, taken off a sid, etc. But my question is specific to Published Departure Procedures only. STARS and Approaches you need to correct. But the discussion we are having, which is coming from another Canadian, is that you do NOT correct for published altitudes on a SID in a RADAR environment. For the life of me I cannot find an exact reference that backs up this claim.

I myself always corrected when it was cold on all published altitudes no matter in departure or arrival. But I am being told ATC does not expect this for departure. Again only on published altitudes on a sid and in a radar environment.

Any one ever see a reference in a document that would indicate this?

Thanks!
