  • The D E F ENCE TEAM
    EDIT DRDC-RDDC-2015-P120 Canada’s defence establishment is a unique organization, comprising two distinct E MAY 2015 D BY: institutions: the civilian-led Department of National Defence (DND), headed by the Deputy Minister of National Defence, and the military-led Canadian Armed Forces GOLDENBER (CAF), headed by the Chief of the Defence Staff. In practice, however, civilian and military personnel – collectively referred to as the Defence Team – work side by side in a variety of contexts, including on bases, on operations, in military academic settings, and at National Defence Headquarters. G , FEBBRARO & These highly integrated workforces allow Canada’s defence establishment to draw on the complementary expertise of military and civilian personnel. Nonetheless, some fundamental differences exist between the military and civilian institutions, most notably separate personnel management systems and distinct cultures that reflect the D different histories, values, roles and policies of Defence civilians and CAF members. EAN Understanding the unique benefits and challenges associated with this integrated workforce is therefore critical to optimal military-civilian personnel collaboration. THE This volume presents conceptual, empirical and historical analyses of the key contextual, organizational and interpersonal factors that influence collaboration between civilian and military personnel in DND and the CAF. The volume will appeal to a diverse audience, including Defence Team personnel, senior leaders in DND and the CAF, human resource professionals, military managers of civilian D personnel and civilian managers of military personnel, and a more general audience interested in workgroup and organizational diversity. The volume furthers our E understanding of military-civilian partnerships and will contribute to the discourse F on the evolution of the Defence Team within Canada.

    Edgar J. Benson Cobourg Boy, Financial Wizard, Minister of Finance When Edgar John Benson was born in 1923, he began life in a poor home on the Cobourg waterfront. When he died in Ottawa, 88 years later, he was proclaimed as: a visionary of exceptional ability ... extraordinarily wily and wise with numbers, skilled at reading between the lines, saying "no" and eliminating red ink from federal budgets. ... A determined and principled man whose two main objectives were realized in parliamentary life as he helped to shape a fair and revised tax system for Canada and a national medical plan. When barely old enough, and perhaps not Globe & Mail Obituary even, he joined the army and during the Second World War served in Britain, France, Holland and Germany as a flash spotter with Clearly Edgar Benson was an exceptional man who arrived at the right moment to serve his country well.

The following provides a short synopsis of the essays. The first four essays that make up the volume start at the tax’s beginning. As William Watson argues, to historians the summer of 1917 is best known not for the income tax but for the conscription debate.
