  • Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report
    Parliamentary Internship Programme 2020-21 Annual Report Annual General Meeting Canadian Political Science Association June 11, 2021 Dr. Paul Thomas Director Web: pip-psp.org Twitter: @PIP_PSP Instagram: @pip-psp Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ParlInternship/ PIP Annual Report 2021 Director’s Message I am delighted to present the Parliamentary Internship Programme’s (PIP) 2020-21 Annual Report to the Canadian Political Science Association (CPSA). The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically reshaped the experience of the 2020-21 internship cohort relative to previous years. Such changes began with a mostly-virtual orientation in September, and continued with remote work in their MP placements, virtual study tours, and Brown-Bag lunches over Zoom. Yet while limiting some aspects of the PIP experience, the pandemic provided opportunities as well. The interns took full advantage of the virtual format to meet with academics, politicians, and other public figures who were inaccessible to previous cohorts relying on in-person meetings. They also learned new skills for online engagement that will serve them well in the hybrid work environment that is emerging as COVID-19 recedes. One thing the pandemic could not change was the steadfast support of the PIP’s various partners. We are greatly indebted to our sponsors who chose to prioritize their contributions to PIPs despite the many pressures they faced. In addition to their usual responsibilities for the Programme, both the PIP’s House of Commons Liasion, Scott Lemoine, and the Programme Assistant, Melissa Carrier, also worked tirelessly to ensure that the interns were kept up to date on the changing COVID guidance within the parliamentary preccinct, and to ensure that they had access to the resources they needed for remote work.

  • HDSB Letter to the Prime Minister Re:Truth and Reconciliation
    The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau Prime Minister of Canada The Honourable Doug Ford Premier of Ontario June 29, 2021 Dear Prime Minister Trudeau and Premier Ford, As leaders of a public Board of Education, the Trustees of the Halton District School Board expressed profound anger about the negative and lasting impacts of the residential school system and sadness about the discovery of the horrific loss of life at the Kamloops Residential School for which there must be accountability. As a response, the Trustees of the Halton District School Board adopted the following recommendation unanimously at the June 2, 2021 Regular Meeting of the Board: Be it resolved that the Chair be directed to write a letter on behalf of the Board of Trustees to Prime Minister Trudeau and the Premier of Ontario Ford urging that the Federal and Provincial Governments listen and take action to honour the requests of the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc First Nations and all Indigenous peoples to fulfil its obligations under the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s Calls to Action. Specifically, the letter should include: ○ That funding be made available by the Government of Canada to undertake and fulfill the Calls to Action regarding Missing Children and Burial Information (#71 - #76). ○ That ground penetrating radar technology be made available to search the grounds of all Residential Schools so that all children can go home. ○ That Indigenous peoples from the communities closest to Residential Schools are actively involved in all stages of the processes at every site. ○ That the voices of the Indigenous community members are centred and lead the process at all sites.

  • October 21, 2020 the Right Honourable Justin Trudeau Prime
    October 21, 2020 The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau The Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson Prime Minister of Canada Minister of Environment and Climate Change The Honourable Chrystia Freeland The Honourable Seamus O’Regan Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Minister of Natural Resources Finance The Honourable Catherine McKenna Minister of Infrastructure and Communities House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 RE: CHFCA Support for the Hydrogen Strategy for Canada Dear Ministers, The Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (CHFCA) represents Canada’s world leading hydrogen and fuel cell sector. We have over 70 member companies comprising over 2,000 employees in highly skilled jobs and the sector has attracted over $0.5 billion of investment in the past 2 years -- and is growing. But this is only the tip of the iceberg. Hydrogen energy will benefit millions of Canadians and help scores of industries decarbonize. The Hydrogen Council forecasts the global sector will become a $2.5 trillion annual market by 2050 to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions, while the Bank of America cites Bloomberg BNEF forecasting an $11 trillion infrastructure market over the next 30 years1. Canada is well positioned to secure a large share of that market due to the world renown strength of our technology companies and energy resources. But over 26 other countries also see the opportunity, so there is urgency to move quickly to maintain our Canadian advantage. For that reason, the CHFCA, with the support of other leading Canadian industry associations, urges: 1. The prompt release of the Hydrogen Strategy for Canada, 2. That it be backed with significant federal government investment, and 3.

    Minister Ministre of Agriculture and de !'Agriculture et de Agri-Food l'Agroalimentaire Ottawa, Canada K1A OC5 Quote: 24 7280 JAN 16 2019 Ms. Diana Bronson and Co-Signatories Executive Director Food Secure Canada [email protected] Dear Ms. Bronson and Co-Signatories: I am writing in response to your correspondence to the Right Honourable Justin Trudeau regarding leadership on A Food Policy for Canada and other federal policies, which was forwarded to me for consideration. As you know, the Office of the Prime Minister forwarded a copy of your correspondence to the Honourable Ginette Petitpas Taylor, Minister of Health, and the Honourable Dominic LeBlanc, Minister of Intergovernmental and Northern Affairs. I appreciate being made aware of the concerns that members of Food Secure Canada and other organizations have regarding the timely announcement of A Food Policy for Canada. As the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, I am honoured that the Prime Minister asked me to lead on a food policy that promotes healthy living and safe food by putting more healthy, high-quality food produced by Canadian ranchers and farmers on the tables of families across the country. A Food Policy for Canada is expected to be a federal, whole-of-government initiative that will establish a long-term vision for a coordinated and systems-based approach to addressing a broad scope of food-related issues in Canada. Throughout the public consultations held in 2017 on this food policy, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) heard from many participants about the importance of taking a balanced approach toward addressing the interconnected themes of food security, health and food safety, environmental sustainability, and economic growth.
