Reaching the Next Development Level - Changing a Client-Based Relationship to One of Collaboration: Summary Report on Consultations Held By the Department of Canadian Heritage - Fall 2004

This summary report is divided into two sections. The first section deals with the broad themes identified during the consultation sessions that were held to define the future directions of the collaboration between the Department of Canadian Heritage and the official-language minority communities. It uses various tools (session reports, presession and post-session questionnaires, evaluations by participants, etc.) to recall and organize the content generated by the participants during the sessions. The second section deals with the sessions’ findings and the possible directions that emerge from these findings. Our firm has been retained to communicate these findings and offer suggestions for possible directions. These suggestions do not reflect the positions of the Department of Canadian Heritage or the communities.
