January 8: Twitter Update from the Deputy Minister Jody Thomas

January 12, 2021 – Defence Stories

Friday Update: National Defence is currently back in business continuity posture in line with revised public health guidance. Questions? Reach out to your supervisors or the Ask Anything inbox. 

Many Defence Team families are juggling work and remote learning with their kids. Be patient with each other and keep supporting our teammates. Everyone is doing their best.

Reach out to a friend or colleague you haven’t spoken to in a while and see how they’re holding up. And *you*: you matter, too. Enormously. Have you talked to anyone about what you’re experiencing right now?

Please tell us how you’re feeling about work through the Public Service Employee Survey. The survey runs until 22 Jan. We use your feedback to gauge how we can improve and where we have challenges. Your voice matters.

Important update this week from #CAF Surgeon General MGen Bilodeau. DND civilians: we will all access our vaccines through our relevant provincial or territorial health care systems, not the CAF allocation.  

This pandemic won’t last forever. Please keep doing your part to help flatten the curve. Keep your distance from people outside your household. Wear your masks. Wash your hands. And keep supporting one another.
