I would be surprised if international experiences were being taken into account rather than the Parliament of Canada's own discussions. I suggest that you make sure that the council is well aware of the debates of Canadian parliamentarians.
You are passionate about what you do and that is very important for Canada. That said, I would like to talk about performance evaluation.
The evaluation states that you work to a great extent through various organizations, in other words you subsidize these organizations for a time, often for the short term. From what I read in the evaluation report, it was often difficult to undertake quantitative evaluations.
Have you thought about how you can make sure that we, as taxpayers, are getting value for money, and how you can identify what is working and what is not working quite as well? I am talking about concrete results in terms of public interest goals.
