Policy advice is essential to an informed and effective public service. Yet the advisory process has become increasingly complex, as a wave of new perspectives now come into play from think tanks, external consultants, international agencies, and other sources.
This event will explore how Canada’s policy advisory system is structured, changes to how it functions, and how Canada’s experience compares to those of other countries that also use the Westminster parliamentary system.
Participants will gain insights on key trends, modern perspectives, and future directions that can help them to better navigate Canada’s policy advisory system.
