That restrict line is your problem because time.nrc.ca resolves to
multiple IP addresses. Replace that line with the following two lines:
restrict 132.246.168.148 nomodify noquery nopeer
restrict 132.246.168.164 nomodify noquery nopeer
You will need to restart ntpd.

If you have not done so already please take a look at
http://support.ntp.org/Support/AccessRestrictions. Depending on your
network architecture you may be able to greatly simply your access
restrictions.
Finally, it is not necessary to segregate the server and restrict lines.
I find it easier to manage servers and restrictions when the restrict
lines are listed below the matching server lines. Especially when a
server hostname resolves to multiple IP addresses. In your case it would
look like:
server time.nrc.ca iburst
restrict 132.246.168.148 nomodify noquery nopeer
restrict 132.246.168.164 nomodify noquery nopeer
server time.chu.nrc.ca iburst
restrict time.chu.nrc.ca nomodify noquery nopeer
server ntp2.cmc.ec.gc.ca iburst
restrict ntp2.cmc.ec.gc.ca nomodify noquery nopeer
