  • The Office of Premier of Ontario 1945-2010: Who Really Advises?
    The Office of Premier of Ontario 1945-2010: Who Really Advises? Patrice Dutil and Peter P. Constantinou This article focuses on the composition of the Ontario Premier’s office and uses an institutionalist approach to put the influence of advisors in context. It looks at expenditures attributed in the Public Accounts to the Premier’s Office and staffing. It assumes that the number of advisors and their placement in the decision-making hierarchy should have a material impact on the quantity and quality of the advice being received by the Premier. Among other things the articles 2013 CanLIIDocs 388 shows that the classic policy/administration divide was not clearly defined in Ontario. Instead it exhibits a back-and-forth habit of experimentation that depended on the personality of the prime minister, the capacities of political and bureaucratic advisors, and the stages of the governmental cycle. There have been discernible cycles in the hiring of political staff and in the growth of expenditures that would indicate the Premier’s Office was more concerned with campaign preparations and externalities than it was in rivaling bureaucratic influence. Compared to Ottawa, where the structures of the Prime Minister’s Office and the Privy Council Office have been far more distinct in this similar time frame, the Ontario experience reveals itself as one of constant experimentation. or almost two generations, observers of all sorts In her study for the Gomery Commission, Liane have almost unanimously lamented the growth in Benoit noted that political staff (or “exempt staff”) Finfluence of prime ministerial advisors.

  • OSC Staff Notice 11-783 Encouraging Retirement Planning Through Behavioural Insights
    OSC Staff Notice 11-783 Encouraging Retirement Planning through Behavioural Insights July 27, 2018 Introduction As part of the Ontario Securities Commission’s (OSC or we) strategy and action plan to respond to the needs and priorities of Ontario seniors, described in OSC Staff Notice 11- 779, Seniors Strategy (the Seniors Strategy), we are publishing Encouraging Retirement Planning through Behavioural Insights, a research report that identifies behaviourally informed ways that government, regulators, employers, and financial institutions can encourage retirement planning. The report, which is appended to this Notice, also includes the results of a randomized experiment that evaluated several of the approaches proposed in the report. Purpose As discussed in the Seniors Strategy, the OSC’s vision is a stronger and more secure financial future for all Ontario seniors. Promoting retirement planning contributes to this vision: It can provide individuals with greater certainty and peace of mind as to their financial lives and lead to higher levels of wealth accumulation.1 Prior OSC research revealed that many Ontarians are not planning for retirement: Its 2017 Investing As We Age study found that 54 per cent of pre-retired Ontarians aged 45 or older have no retirement plan, and that only 14 per cent have a formal, written plan. Understanding the barriers preventing more Ontarians from planning for retirement will help us better serve the public interest and work towards the vision described in the Seniors Strategy. It also reflects our commitment, outlined in our 2018-19 Statement of Priorities,2 to: 1 Annamaria Lusardi, Planning for Retirement: The Importance of Financial Literacy, 19(3) Public Policy and Aging Report 7, at p.
