You can also leave us a short message at 1-855-269-6250. Discussion Paper 2: Approaches for Reform continues the dialogue we started in June, with the release of A Discussion Paper: Issues and Ideas. The response to that paper was tremendous, with over 700 submissions sent in. Many of them are posted on this site. Thank you to everyone who sent us their ideas for change, who shared their stories, and organized or attended a conversation in their community. Your participation has been invaluable to our work. We have summarized the feedback we received in What We Heard: A Summary of Discussions on Social Assistance. We encourage you to read the summary as a companion to the second discussion paper. The Commission would like to receive your input by Friday, March 16, 2012 in order to consider it in the development of recommendations to the government this June. |
