In the employment and training domain, I know that in the city of Toronto, for example, we have all three levels of government heavily involved in funding services. There's very little information about how that's working and what the coordination issues are. I think it's a perfect example of an uncoordinated, fragmented system that we currently have in Canada.
SIBs or social finance might, if designed properly, offer an opportunity to collectively target the efforts of the three levels of government more effectively so that they're driving toward specific outcomes. I think social impact bonds, payment for performance, and some of these outcomes models could potentially, if designed properly, help coordinate in a more focused way efforts in areas like employment services, which for the most part are currently not particularly well coordinated.
