The Canada Council for the Arts is a federal Crown corporation created by an Act of Parliament in 1957 “to foster and promote the study and enjoyment of, and the production of works in, the arts.” The Council offers a broad range of grants (6,168 in 2008-09) and services to professional Canadian artists and arts organizations in music, theatre, writing and publishing, visual arts, dance, media arts and integrated arts. It further seeks to raise public awareness of the arts through its communications, research and arts promo- tion activities. The Council also awards prizes and fellowships every year to ap- proximately 200 artists and scholars. The Canadian Commission for UNESCO and the Public Lending Right Commission operate within the Council. The Canada Council Art Bank, which has some 17,300 works of contemporary Canadian art in its collection, rents to the public and private sectors. The Canada Council is governed by an 11-member Board. The Chair, the members of the Board and the Director of the Council are appointed by the Governor in Council for fixed terms. The Council relies heavily on the advice of artists and arts professionals from all parts of Canada (some 800 serve annually as jurors, or peer assessors) and works in close co-operation with federal, provincial, territorial and municipal arts and cultural agencies and departments. The Council reports to Parliament through the Minister of Canadian Heritage; its accounts are audited by the Auditor General of Canada. The annual budget allocation from Parliament is supplemented by endowment income, donations and bequests. 2 Contents Message from the Chair 4 Message from the Director 6 Management’s Discussion and Analysis 8 Strategic Directions and Performance Corporate Scorecard Index on the Arts Financial Overview Highlights 24 Governance 36 Financial Statements 46 Management’s Responsibility for Financial Reporting Auditor’s Report Financial Statements and Notes Message from the Chair Canada Council Chair Joseph L.

In finding the Council to be in almost every way a model of efficient and effective management, I was not alone. Two months before my arrival, at the Council’s June 2008 Board meeting, the Auditor General of Canada delivered a positive report on the Council, the outcome of a Special Examination by her Office. The auditors examined the Council’s systems and practices in the areas of grant management, governance, strategic planning, performance measurement and reporting to determine whether they ensure “that its assets are safeguarded and controlled, that its resources are managed economically and efficiently, and that its operations are carried out effectively.” They investigated whether, in aiming to support artistic excellence, the Council ensures “that it awards financial support to the most deserving artists and arts organizations, and that it does so in a fair, consistent and objective manner.” 5 Message from the Director Canada Council Director Robert Sirman (left) is shown presenting the 2008 Walter Carsen Prize for Excellence in the Performing Arts to dancer and choreographer Margie Gillis in the company of Walter Carsen (Toronto, December 2008).

  • Property of the Estate of Blema and H. Arnold Steinberg
    ProPerty of the estAte of BlemA And h. Arnold steinBerg member of the board of governors of McGill University, and later as governor emeritus, and founding chairman of the board of the McGill University Health Centre, among other titles. All of this led to one of the most gratifying roles of his extraordinary life, when in 2009 he was appointed chancellor of McGill University. Upon his passing, Heather Munroe-Blum, vice-chancellor of McGill, reflected: “Arnold was a prince of a man. He shaped McGill, Montreal and Canada in deeply progressive and posi- tive ways—uniquely, indelibly. He influenced everyone he met through his gracious warmth, joyous optimism and incisive intelligence.” Blema Steinberg wore many hats and was exceptionally accomplished. She too was known for her remarkable dedication to McGill University and her continuous philanthropic efforts. She was a double graduate of McGill, where she completed her BA and PhD, and a graduate of Cornell University, where she completed her MA. She became a professor in 1961 and was appointed to McGill’s Department of Political Science, where she taught for more than 40 years, before being honoured with the title of professor emerita following her retirement in 2001. During her tenure, she focused her research efforts on the psy- chological factors of decision-making and character studies of leaders in politics. Blema authored many academic publications and, most notably, two books—Women in Power: The Personalities Blema and H. Arnold Steinberg and Leadership Styles of Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir and Margaret Photo: Owen Egan Thatcher and Shame and Humiliation: Presidential Decision-Making Courtesy of McGill University on Vietnam.
