May 4, 2012 Dear Reader, Greetings! Welcome to the latest diversity and multicultural news in Canada. The purpose of this newsletter is to inform and educate aspiring and current Women, Aboriginal and Visible Minority professionals and entrepreneurs across Canada seeking to advance their careers or grow their businesses both locally and internationally. If you would like more news and information visit  www.diversitycan.com  The following are the main headlines: Ernst & Young grows presence in Western Canada; Saskatchewan´s Hergott Duval Stack LLP to join firm. Harper Government Continues to Strongly Support Canada's Manufacturing Sector. Canada Enhances Business and Research Collaboration Opportunities with Brazil. Government of Canada Supports Innovative Technologies to Bring Jobs and Growth to Niagara. Government of Canada invests to help youth in West Prince County get jobs Special Feature : Connecting with Employment Service Providers to Find Skilled Aboriginal Workers. Sincerely, Jennifer Ingram, Newsbrief Editor Upcomming Events ONTARIO POWER SUMMIT (May - 8th-9th). CONSTRUCTION LABOUR RELATIONS (May - 10th-11th). First Nation Councillor's Conference(May - 23rd-25th). This Week´s Highlights Ernst & Young grows presence in Western Canada; Saskatchewan´s Hergott Duval Stack LLP to join firm (Toronto) Ernst & Young has signed a letter of intent that will see Hergott Duval Stack LLP – the largest independent accounting, tax and business advisory firm in the fast-growing province of Saskatchewan – join our firm. The transaction will cement Ernst & Young´s presence in Western Canada and further the firm´s Entrepreneurial Services reach from coast to coast. "Hergott Duval Stack´s reputation is unparalleled in Saskatchewan, particularly in the private mid-market space," says Trent Henry, Ernst & Young Chairman and CEO in Canada. "Over the last 30 years, they have redefined the meaning of exceptional client service. We´re delighted to be joining forces to provide comprehensive service for businesses looking to succeed at the heart of one of Canada´s busiest markets, and beyond." This transaction comes on the heels of Ernst & Young´s deal with RSM Richter in Toronto and Calgary last December, and its acquisition of OME Group Consultants in August 2011 – both of which underpinned the expansion of the firm´s flourishing Entrepreneurial Services practice. Given the breadth and depth of Hergott Duval Stack relationships across Saskatchewan´s private mid-market space, Henry is particularly excited about how this deal boosts Ernst & Young´s Western Canada operations and Entrepreneurial Services practice. "Like us, Hergott Duval Stack is committed to working with, supporting and celebrating entrepreneurs. Those common values empower us to up our game in Entrepreneurial Services, and offer private companies the innovative services they need to propel their businesses – and the Canadian economy – forward." read full story   Harper Government Continues to Strongly Support Canada's Manufacturing Sector The Honourable Jim Flaherty, Minister of Finance, today highlighted the Harper Government´s contributions to helping build a strong manufacturing sector and how key elements of Economic Action Plan 2012 will significantly strengthen the ability of Canadian businesses to grow and create high-value jobs. Speaking at the Waterloo Region Manufacturing Innovation Network´s Manufacturing Summit in Kitchener, Ontario, Minister Flaherty said, "Manufacturing and exporting represent two major drivers of our country´s economy. Our Plan will allow manufacturers in Ontario, and businesses throughout Canada, to compete more effectively and to succeed in markets around the world." In Economic Action Plan 2012, the Harper Government has committed to enhance trade and investment relationships in large and fast-growing global markets. This includes strengthening ties with China, Canada´s second-largest trading partner. The Plan will also consolidate Canada´s trade remedy system into one organization under the Canadian International Trade Tribunal. This will cut red tape and provide a single window for Canadian businesses to take action against unfair trade, while generating cost savings. read full story   Canada Enhances Business and Research Collaboration Opportunities with Brazil Ottawa,—The Honourable Gary Goodyear, Minister of State for Science and Technology, wrapped up an official visit to Brazil yesterday, where he was part of the official delegation of His Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston, Governor General of Canada. During his visit, the Minister of State delivered a keynote address to business leaders, academics and government officials at an innovation forum in São Paulo. In his remarks, he underscored the importance of supporting collaborative research as a means of promoting innovation and economic growth. "Our respective governments share a common commitment to science and technology as a way of ensuring future prosperity," said Minister of State Goodyear. "Collaboration between governments, academics and business people is vital to building innovative economies." The Minister of State welcomed the many bilateral collaborative research partnership arrangements between Brazilian and Canadian universities and research funding organizations that were signed during the mission. read full story   Government of Canada Supports Innovative Technologies to Bring Jobs and Growth to Niagara Vineland Station, Ontario – The Government of Canada is investing $2.5 million in the Vineland Research and Innovation Centre to support the development of innovative horticultural technologies. The Honourable Rob Nicholson, P.C., Q.C., Member of Parliament for Niagara Falls, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, on behalf of the Honourable Gary Goodyear, Minister of State for the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario (FedDev Ontario), accompanied by Dean Allison, Member of Parliament for Niagara West-Glanbrook, made the announcement today. "Our government´s top priority remains creating jobs, growth and long-term prosperity for Canadians," said Minister Nicholson. "This investment will help Canada´s horticulture industry become more competitive, and open new markets to businesses participating in this project." "Our government is proud to support Vineland Research and Innovation Centre in its work to develop innovative technologies that will increase profitability for growers," said MP Allison. "This investment supports the agricultural sector, and horticulture in particular, which is an important driver of Canada´s economic growth." read full story   Government of Canada invests to help youth in West Prince County get jobs Alberton, Prince Edward Island—The Government of Canada announced new funding to support youth in West Prince to help them gain the knowledge they need to enter and succeed in the job market. The announcement was made by the Honourable Gail Shea, Minister of National Revenue and Member of Parliament for Egmont, on behalf of the Honourable Diane Finley, Minister of Human Resources and Skills Development. "Our government´s top priority is creating jobs and economic growth," said Minister Shea. "Our government´s Youth Employment Strategy is helping youth develop the skills and gain the experience they need to get jobs now and prepare for the workforce of tomorrow." West Prince Ventures is receiving over $30,000 from the Youth Awareness program to help youth explore career entrepreneurship possibilities in their community. Youth Awareness complements the Government of Canada´s Youth Employment Strategy (YES). It provides financial assistance for projects designed to promote youth as the workforce of the future. With annual funding of more than $300 million, YES helps youth, particularly those facing barriers to employment, obtain career information, develop employment skills, find jobs and stay employed. YES includes the Skills Link and Career Focus programs and the Canada Summer Jobs initiative, which creates thousands of job opportunities for students every summer. read full story   Special Feature Connecting with Employment Service Providers to Find Skilled Aboriginal Workers Canada is a quiet country spanning 4,500 miles coast to coast, and those miles are filled with unique locales and peoples. Its cultural history and makeup include the Aboriginal populations defined as First Nations (North American Indian), Métis, and Inuit populations. The minority populations are also the fastest growing groups with Statistics Canada reporting 1.1 million Aboriginals in the country. The population is expected to grow six times faster than non-Aboriginal populations at least through 2017, meaning the minority citizens are a major human resource pool of potential employees and entrepreneurs. To address the needs of the Aboriginal community in areas of employment, the government created the Aboriginal Community Career Employment Services Society (ACCESS). It is a program designed to provide urban Aboriginals access to whatever services are needed to overcome barriers to employment and self-sufficiency. ACCESS offers counselling, training, education, pre-employment and employment assistance, trades training, apprenticeship programs, financial assistance and a variety of funded programs meeting specific needs. This unique one-stop service centre in Vancouver is remarkably comprehensive and serves as a model for minority development programs in other countries. ACCESS is just one of many Aboriginal Agreement Holders for the Aboriginal Skills and Employment Training (ASETS) program. While ACCESS works primarily with urban Aboriginals in Vancouver, ASETS works with all Aboriginals regardless of location. The purpose of ASETS is to provide the connection between what the labour force demands in skills and Aboriginal access to training to meet those needs. One-Stop for Ease of Access ASETS is a one-stop shop for employers and potential employees. It offers skills development, training, programs for youth, programs for people with disabilities, urban programs and other services. On the ASETS website, employers can enter a free online platform called Aboriginal Canada Portal, where country wide job openings targeted to Aboriginals can be posted. read full story Past News Briefs News brief April 26th ´2012 News brief April 19th ´2012 News brief April 12th ´2012 News brief March 30th ´2012 For daily breaking business news visit www.diversitycan.com   For information on advertising and marketing contact Sarah Jia at sarah@diversitycan.com If you are not the intended recipient or if you want to unsubscribe click here "You must be the change you wish to see in the world" - Mahatma Gandhi

TAPA hosted the APASO (Association of Performing Arts Service Organizations) Conference which was a great success. Right now North American ASO’s have reached a critical juncture in terms of understanding our role in these uncertain times. The conference addressed this predicament by providing core content and carefully cast keynote/plenary speakers who set the tone for a rigorous discussion.  Keynote Speaker Simon Brault provided a context whereas Plenary Speaker Tim Jones focussed on strategy. They both provided a complimentary set of arguments addressing current overarching concerns; and the subsequent panel and break-out sessions enabled lots of lively discussion amongst delegates. APASO Toronto 2012 was a defining event signalling the rise of TAPA's influence beyond the local community and demonstrated our capacity to play a larger leadership role in North America. Thank you to the Ontario Arts Council in particular for their support and to all the contributing efforts made by the TAPA Board of Directors and staff team and last but certainly not least, to all the fabulous TAPA member host venues: The  Royal Alexandra Theatre, The Elgin and Winter Garden Theatre, Hart House, The Second City and Theatre Passe Muraille. As budgets are squeezed and staff sizes are reduced, the benefits of partnering with fellow arts groups, community organizations and local businesses are undeniable. TAPA was pleased to work with Orchestras Canada, CCI, the ASO Learning Network and Creative Enterprise Initiative in hosting a post-APASO conference event COUNTING NEW BEANS: Intrinsic Impact and the Value of Art, a presentation by Clayton Lord, Director of Communications and Audience Development for Theatre Bay Area in San Francisco. Some TAPA members were able to attend. For those of you who couldn’t join us, CLICK HERE for the full presentation. Audiences are an important part of our ecosystem and at TAPA we are looking forward to launching the AUDIENCE PROJECT soon – a special notice will be sent separately about this project and how your company can participate.

Every show contributes to the learning of new skills and to the growth of the artists. Every production provides a forum for new and emerging artists to hone their skills, pursue new interests, and fuel their passion for art. The collective members are multi-talented artists able to play a variety of roles within the company. draft89’s events and workshops showcase Canadian artistic talent in an array of mediums. draft89 intends to make independent theatre more visible and increase patronage of the arts. Draft89 was founded in 2003 in Vancouver, BC, and moved to Toronto in 2004. The Name F. Scott Fitzgerald, the subject of our 2002/2003 production Tragic Eccentrics, claimed that he would write between 70 and 150 drafts of each of his novels.  This is a staggering body of work which represents not just a concern for the goal, but also for the process.  It represents a lifetime of commitment to constantly improving one’s craft.  What did the 89th draft of The Great Gatsby look like?  Like every one of our productions, we hope.  A considerable leap forward from the last one, and only a hint of what is to come. Does Theatre Still Matter? Once, live theatre was the only way to communicate the same story to large numbers of people.  Today it is possible to watch a work of fiction performed on a handheld device while riding on the bus.  Film and television have enormous budgets, and even a modest production can reach millions of people.  Against these odds, ordinary theatre just isn’t good enough.  To remain relevant, we must excel in areas where film and television cannot compete. What happens in the story before the first line of dialog?  If I look back over my shoulder, what is going on behind me?  In the world of pre-recorded drama, these questions don’t even make sense.  In the world of interdisciplinary theatre, they are opportunities to create an experience that is impossible anywhere else, for any amount of money. Interdisciplinary Theatre Does theatre have boundaries?  When does a play become a musical?  A dance?  An installation?  At draft89, we view all these distinctions as meaningless.  Each of our productions strives to put our audience at the heart of an experience.  FOE (2006) put them in a living art gallery.  John/Yoko Bed Piece (2009) put them in a Montreal hotel room for one famous week.  Islands (2011) will put them five hundred years in the future and ha

TSAR Publications Caribbean Lit! 20% off until May 31! ·         Free Shipping! ·         No taxes! View all Caribbean titles at www.tsarbooks.com     Beyond Sangre Grande: Caribbean Writing Today edited by Cyril Dabydeen Beyond Sangre Grande brings together a contemporary selection of Caribbean fiction and poetry by authors living in Canada, the US, the UK, and the Caribbean itself. Fusing creole and other cultural streams from a changing world, these writers capture the cadences and rhythms of the Caribbean while admitting diverse influences to demonstrate the continuity and vitality of Caribbean writing today.     Anthology/ ISBN 978-1-894770-66-8/ Price: $28.95  $23.16/ 200 pp/ pb/     Jahaji: An Anthology of Indo-Caribbean Fiction edited by Frank Birbalsingh Indians have lived in the Caribbean for more than a hundred and sixty years, ever since they took to the ships to work on the sugar plantations. Jahaji (the term meaning “ship traveler”) brings together a representative selection of Indo-Caribbean fiction from three generations of writers. Together, the sixteen writers included here give us an imaginative depiction of the experiences of their people across a span of fifty years—the hopes, aspirations and frustrations of life in colonial Trinidad and Guyana, the post-independence tribulations of third-world citizens, and the quest for meaning and identity in the second migration to Canada, the United States, and Britain. ". . . covers a range of prose styles, while thoroughly exploring issues and preoccupations relevant to the Indo-Caribbean experience." —Caribbean Beat Magazine Anthology/ ISBN 978-0-920661-88-8/ Price: $21.95 $17.56 / pb/     An Island Is a World Sam Selvon A novel of a personal and intellectual quest in postwar Trinidad. In the post-war Caribbean colony, as an earlier generation thinks of returning to India, Foster, a young man, goes to England and Rufus his brother leaves for the United States, each in search of himself and his world. Combining his characteristic humour with a vivid sense of place, Selvon's An Island is a World tells a moving story of personal and intellectual quest in our time. "His evocative descriptions . . . his humourous affectionate portrayal of character and his subtle use of folklore . . . are evidence of a master yarn-spinner."  —The Globe and Mail Novel/ ISBN 978-0-920661-34-5/ Price: $13.95 $11.16 / pb/     Return to Arcadia H Nigel Thomas When at 51, Joshua Éclair—victim of a pygmalianism gone awry—emerges from amnesia in a hospital in Montreal, he must explore what makes him want to erase his identity. This is the gripping story of a man’s search for sanity set in the fictional Caribbean Isabella Island and the various places Joshua has fled to: Montreal, New York, Tallahassee, London, Paris and Madrid. This is a finely accomplished novel about a very modern predicament: the malformed dysfunctional identity in the global village. "Thomas offers a fine story of forgiveness, self-actualization, and belonging." — Montreal Review of Books Novel/ ISBN 978-1-894770-38-5/ Price: $20.95 $16.76/ pb/     Redemption Rain Jennifer Rahim Redemption Rain invites the reader into its profound epiphanies through patient revisitation and introspection. Rahim’s voice weaves the explosive power of her lively Trinidadian Creole with the searching intensity of one given to appreciating memory’s redemptive light. This is a book about the necessary and the unexpected; about costly arrival in the sacred spaces of realization and recognition. Always the impulse is to praise. Hers is a voice that does not shrill but invests in the finer sensibilities of justice, beauty, love, and community to bring out her poetic truth. "a tenderly perceptive yet penetratingly measured depiction of the contemplative’s path on which spirituality, history, culture, and ecology congregate in unambiguous communal celebration. . . Here then is a poetry that speaks directly to our sense of human belonging, our recognition of smallness within vastness, our experiential encounters with love and loss." —S Rose-Ann Walker, The University of Trinidad and Tobago   Poetry/ ISBN 978-1-894770-70-5/ Price: $17.95 $14.36 / pb/     Lantana Strangling Ixora Sasenarine Persaud This collection is as much about love as it is about origins and the process of estrangement. The lantana is a flower of South American origin, and the ixora of Asian origin. The lantana, a creeper that grows profusely, often engulfing other plants, provides a ready metaphor for the consciousness of the Americas overcoming that of India in the Americas. This collection ranges widely in its geographical and historical concerns. It displays a mastery over nuances of language, and is at once quirky and humorous as it continues an engagement with the theme of “place as muse.” "Persaud’s elegant poems, though they linger heavily on loss, are quietly reassuring." —Bostonia Poetry/ ISBN 978-1-894770-72-9/ Price: $17.95 $14.36/ pb   View all Caribbean titles at www.tsarbooks.com   TSAR Publications (416) 483-7191 inquiries@tsarbooks.com www.tsarbooks.com To be removed from our mailing list please reply to this email and add “Remove Me (Please)” to the subject line.

Dear Anita, Welcome to the Ipsita Nova Dance Projects e-blast. It's not a newsletter.  It's not a diary.  It's a snippet, a flash, a peek into what is simmering on the creative stove-top. Nova Bhattacharya (contemporary Bharatanatyam elegance ) meets   Noam Gagnon (physically punishing extremes)   It may seem at first glance that these two artists come from completely different worlds - if not planets!  So what on Earth are they doing in the studio together? Here's your chance for an exclusive look:  Saturday April 14 at 3pm Canada's National Ballet School, 400 Jarvis Street, Toronto Seating is limited so RSVP to hold your spot. Special thanks to Canada's National Ballet School for their support. If you no longer wish to receive these emails, please click the SafeUnsubscribe link below.

	RE place RE quest Angélica Teuta April 6-May 26, 2012 Gendai Workstation,1265 Bloor St. West Hours: Tue.-Sat., 11am-6pm Opening Reception Saturday April 14, 2012, 8-11pm Unlike the neutral spaces of museums, art galleries and artist-run centres, the Gendai Workstation functions as a constantly evolving site of collaborative construction, installation, architecture and renovation. Artists, architects, builders, curators and others; magicians, chefs, and gardeners to name a few, are invited to contribute to the physical and theoretical development of the space. Changing the focus from a finished product to an ongoing process of construction and collaboration allows for a move away from reified forms of knowledge to a multifarious dialogue, which, at every instance, provides possibilities for improvisation and interrogating the underpinnings on which artistic and architectural forms of knowledge are built. Colombian artist Angélica Teuta will be a collaborator-in-residence at the Workstation, working together with the two architectureDjs-in-residence, Anne Ehrlich and Jonathan Wong, to create a new site-specific installation RE place RE quest. Teuta's own practice is well suited to this kind of collaboration; her work involves the creation of a dialogue between sculptural and photographic elements, and uses basic technology, projected and reflected light, small motors, machines, recycled objects and information to transform spaces into unique environments. Teuta's installations challenge the notions of reality we have been taught or to which we have simply become accustomed, creating a context to encourage inquiry, wonder and reflection rather than passive acceptance. RE place RE quest is presented in collaboration with the 25th Images Festival, April 12-April 21. This project with Teuta was facilitated and is supported by the Art Gallery of York University, who will be working with her later this year on a residency in preparation for their Fall 2012 exhibition Imaginary Homelands. Collaborator-in-Residence Angélica Teuta is an artist living and working in Bogotá, Columbia. She studied fine art at the National University of Columbia. Teuta creates installations using light, mechanisms, and spaces. Her most recent solo show, Scenes to prevent nightmares was shown at the Cases Reigner Gallery in Bogotá and the Des Pacio Gallery in San Jose, Costa Rica. Her other solo exhibitions have been at Centro Colombo Americano, Alianza Francesa sede Centro, and Cámara de Comercio in Bogota, Galería La Vitrina in Cali, the Central Library at the National University of Columbia in Medellín, and a site-specific installation in her own home. Her work has been included in group exhibitions in Chile, Columbia, Puerto Rico, Argentina and Brazil, and has been written about in Artforum and Artnexus. ArchitectureDjs-in-Residence Anne Ehrlich has worked as a designer on various architectural, furniture, and exhibition projects in Toronto, Vancouver, and San Francisco. Her sculpture and drawings have been exhibited at Helen Pitt Gallery, Access Artist-Run Centre, and Antisocial Gallery in Vancouver, and Larry Wayne Richards Gallery in Toronto. Born in Mauritius, Jonathan Wong lives and works in Toronto, Canada. He makes spatial interventions through the notion of drawing that reinvent the notion of public space. In doing so he also explores issues of affect and collaboration. He has initiated a number of independent projects that temporarily appropriate various urban spaces (back alley, lobby of public institutions, etc...) to invite the users to reconsider their usual perception of those spaces. He has exhibited at the Gendai Gallery (Toronto), Larry Wayne Richards Gallery (Toronto) and the Eye Gallery (Toronto).

Thursday March 29, 2012  Provincial Budget 2012: Why Harm the Vulnerable on the Road to Reform? The 2012 Ontario Provincial Budget was released Tuesday March 27, 2012.  The Ontario Nonprofit Network (ONN) recognizes the significant fiscal pressures faced by the provincial government and finds reasons to be optimistic about some of the proposed plans for reforming policies, delivery and investments in public-benefit programs and services. We are, however, disappointed with the elements of the budget that affect that most vulnerable in communities across Ontario in a negative way. Having made several concrete suggestions to the Commission on the Reform of Public Services, ONN takes a principled and pro-active approach to public-benefit program and service reform, which involves the following: A careful and constructive examination of revenue generation to help the government achieve its fiscal objectives, which meets the principle of "Do No Harm" for those most in need of public-benefit services; Meaningful partnerships between the third sector and the provincial government; No privatization of public-benefit programs and publicly-held assets; and, Modernization of the government-sector investment relationship. The Provincial Budget 2012 provides some positive ideas on public-benefit reform and partnership involving the sector, and we are optimistic that actions will follow the policy directives outlined. But some of the measures taken against the most vulnerable fail to meet the principle of "Do No Harm," with Social Assistance recipients and their families being particularly hard hit, for example. Moreover, the budget could have attained even greater savings towards the goal of fiscal balance by modestly increasing the marginal tax rate of Ontarians with earnings of $250,000 or greater in income.  A 2% tax increase to Ontarians with these earnings would have been much easier to absorb than the current budget's actions on the poorest and most vulnerable in our province.   How Does the Provincial Budget Affect You and Your Sector? We want to hear from you about the ways in which the Provincial Budget 2012 has made an impact on your organization and your sector.  Visit our webpage, Provincial Budget Watch: What Others are Saying to find out what other nonprofits and community organizations are saying about the provincial budget. Please send your feedback and suggestions to Kim. WEBINARS Network Builders: Designing the Right Structures and Processes to Make it Work   Offered by the Ontario Volunteer Centre’s Network (OVCN) in partnership with ONN and sponsored by Ontario Trillium Foundation. Presenter: Linda Mollenhauer, Mollenhauer Consulting. Target audiences:  1.  Nonprofit organizations who are: a) currently in a network or collaboration and are wanting to ensure they have taken the appropriate steps to build their structure and processes; and, b) exploring or just establishing a network or collaboration and want to take the right steps forward. 2.  Funders, intermediaries and capacity builders: funders, including foundations, corporations, governments, United Ways, intermediaries and capacity builders, who are supporting networks/collaborations and want to learn about the key decisions points which non-profit organizations face. Description:  With today’s complexity of issues and the pressure to work smarter, not harder, non-profit organizations are increasingly building networks or collaborations as a way to weave together and create capacities that get better leverage and results. But the key challenge for many network and collaboration builders is to ensure they are designing a network that will work effectively. Typical organizational structures and processes don’t work the same way for networks. This webinar will help non-profit Board, management or staff members or funders and capacity builders to understand the critical choices and decisions required to put the right structure and processes in place. It will be of interested to those who are just establishing a network or collaboration and want to understand the building blocks or those who already have an established one, but want to ensure it’s built on solid foundations. You will learn about the important steps of finding unifying purpose, identifying members, choosing the organizational and governance structure and getting the work done. As well, you’ll have the opportunity to share your own experiences and hear from others. Spaces will be limited. Dates:  March 30, 2012, 12-1:30pm (EST)  Cost: Free. Register Here (Spaces left) April 25, 2012, 12-1:30pm (EST)  Cost:  Free.  Register Here (Spaces left) Back to top Webinar: Understanding the New Ontario Not-For-Profit Corporations Act (Bill 65) ONN is holding a webinar on the ONCA to help you better understand the basic features of the Act, and how it will affect your organization, both with and without our proposed amendments. This session will provide you with a sufficient overview to begin transition planning.

STATEMENT / DÉCLARATION Federal Budget 2012 / Budget fédéral 2012
Canada Council speaks on federal budget "The Canada Council for the Arts is enormously heartened by the positive message sent by the 2012 budget and the support of the government in recognizing the Council's leadership role," said Canada Council Board Chair Joseph L. Rotman. "This vote of confidence in the Council is a clear signal of support for the arts as the creative heart of the nation. This government and the Minister of Canadian Heritage, the Hon. James Moore, clearly appreciate the sector's positive contribution to the economy and identity of this country. It makes it all the more important that we continue to demonstrate the highest possible standard in our investment of public funds." Throughout its 55-year history, the Council and its programs continue to evolve, keeping pace with changes in both the practice of art and the demographic realities of the country. Its strong focus on demonstrable results has been repeatedly highlighted, most recently in the Special Examination by the Auditor General of Canada (2008) and Strategic Review (2010) and its most recent strategic plan, Strengthening Connections 2011-16. In 2011 the Council established a process to assess current and future program options against its highest level objective: a vital and diverse arts sector that enriches the lives of Canadians.    "The government's decision to maintain the Council's funding gives us the opportunity to independently take actions that will generate savings that we can reinvest back into the professional arts sector. It will also enable us to ensure our programs continue to be relevant, cost-effective and responsive to the changing needs of the community," said Director and CEO Robert Sirman. "Over the next three years we will implement a number of changes that are already in development, including reducing the cost of our office space, streamlining operational processes and adjusting programs." In the coming months, the Council will review options that address its traditional commitment to the core of creative arts practice while reflecting areas of increasing priority, including equity, public engagement, and national and international market access.   The Canada Council for the Arts is an arms-length Crown corporation that strengthens Canadian arts practice and connects the public to the arts using a parliamentary appropriation of roughly $5.25 per capita. Through its grants, awards, prizes and payments, the Council supports over 20,000 artists and arts organizations annually. It also houses the Canada Council Art Bank with over 17,000 works of contemporary Canadian art and the Canadian Commission for UNESCO. Governed by an 11-person board, the Council reports to Parliament through the Minister of Canadian Heritage and is audited annually by the Auditor General of Canada.

Le Conseil des arts parle du budget fédéral

« Le Conseil des arts est très encouragé par le message positif transmis par le budget 2012 et le soutien du gouvernement qui reconnaît le rôle de leadership du Conseil », a déclaré Joseph L. Rotman, président du Conseil des arts du Canada. « Ce vote de confiance envers le Conseil est un signal clair de soutien aux arts, cœur créatif de la nation. Ce gouvernement et le ministre du Patrimoine canadien, l'honorable James Moore, apprécient clairement la contribution positive de ce secteur à l'économie et à l'identité de ce pays. Cela confirme qu'il nous faut continuer à appliquer les normes les plus élevées possible dans notre utilisation des fonds publics. »

Au fil de ses 55 années d'existence, le Conseil et ses programmes ont continuellement évolué, et ce, au même rythme que les changements qui survenaient dans la pratique artistique et les réalités démographiques du pays. Ses démarches fermement axées sur la démonstration de ses résultats ont été soulignées à de nombreuses reprises, plus récemment dans le cadre de l'examen spécial du vérificateur général du Canada (2008), de l'examen stratégiques (2010), ainsi que dans son dernier Plan stratégique, Resserrer les liens, 2011-2016 En 2011, le Conseil a établi un processus visant à évaluer les options actuelles et futures en matière de programme par rapport à son objectif le plus élevé, à savoir la viabilité d'un secteur artistique vigoureux et diversifié qui enrichit la vie des Canadiennes et des Canadiens.   

Selon Robert Sirman, directeur et chef de la direction : « La décision du gouvernement de maintenir le financement du Conseil nous donne l'occasion de prendre, de notre propre chef, des mesures qui génèreront des économies que nous pourrons réinvestir dans le secteur artistique professionnel. Cela nous permettra aussi de nous assurer que nos programmes demeurent pertinents, rentables et adaptés aux besoins en constante évolution de la communauté. Au cours des trois prochaines années, nous mettrons en œuvre un certain nombre de changements déjà en cours d'élaboration, notamment la réduction des coûts de nos locaux, la simplification de nos processus opérationnels et le rajustement de nos programmes. »

Pendant les prochains mois, le Conseil examinera les options qui s'offrent à lui quant à son engagement traditionnel envers le cœur de la pratique artistique créatrice, tout en tenant compte des aspects qui deviennent de plus en plus prioritaires, notamment l'équité, l'engagement du public envers les arts et l'accès aux marchés national et international.

Le Conseil des arts est une société d'État autonome qui renforce la pratique artistique canadienne et met le public en contact avec les arts aux coûts d'environ 5,25 $ par habitant. Grâce à ses subventions, prix, bourses et paiements, le Conseil appuie plus de 20 000 artistes et organismes artistiques tous les ans. Le Conseil des arts abrite en outre la Banque d'œuvres d'art et ses quelque 17 000 d'œuvres d'art contemporain ainsi que la Commission canadienne pour l'UNESCO. Dirigé par un conseil d'administration de 11 membres, le Conseil rend compte de ses activités au Parlement par l'entremise du ministre du Patrimoine canadien et ses comptes sont audités tous les ans par le vérificateur général du Canada.
