Call to Action on Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion in the Federal Public Service

As Clerk, I see achieving greater representation and inclusion as fundamental to building a strong public service that will deliver for Canadians. Today, I provided direction on next steps to advance the Call to Action on Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion, to accelerate our efforts to towards meeting these objectives.
This update promotes the Call to Action’s ideals and goals to the public service and provides clear guidance on setting objectives, measuring progress and establishing accountabilities.
I encourage all public servants to read the full letter.

The federal public service is stronger and most effective when our voices and experiences reflect the full diversity of Canada’s populations we serve.
The Call to Action on Anti-Racism, Equity, and Inclusion in the Federal Public Service (CTA) is generating meaningful momentum as departments make progress in addressing the long-standing discrimination and racism experienced by many Indigenous peoples and Black and other racialized groups across Canada.
Building a diverse, equitable and inclusive public service is an obligation we all share, and we still have a long way to go.
Forward direction on the CTA
The forward direction sets expectations for the Call to Action: set multi-year goals, measure progress and establish consequential accountability.
