PIPSC advocates for strengthening the federal government’s capacity to deliver high-quality public services and programs. This includes engagement on the impacts of the federal government’s comprehensive expenditure review and associated workforce adjustments on service delivery and the retention of internal expertise. PIPSC also engages on concerns related to the federal government's growing reliance on outsourcing and professional services contracts and the need to rebuild in-house public sector capacity.
PIPSC advocacy focuses on the protection of scientific integrity and the role of evidence-based decision-making across federal departments and agencies, along with the integrity and fairness of Canada’s tax system, including appropriate resourcing for enforcement and compliance, and broader workforce management policies related to recruitment, retention, and the preservation of specialized expertise within the federal public service.Read more

Cheryl Gallant · Stakeholder Relations, Office of the Leader of the Official Opposition (OLO)
Refugees: We are advocating for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada to initiate efforts to direct refugee settlement to locations where individuals may be qualified, with training, to fill meat industry job vacancies. The Canadian meat industry also welcomes any other initiatives that will facilitate inter-provincial labour mobility of unemployed, under-employed and disadvantaged Canadians willing to work in our industry.Read more
Access to Labour:The Government of Canada should create a 10-year $50 million tax credit for the adoption of automation and industrial robotics in the Canadian meat industry to help Canada’s meat packing and processing industry become more productive during this time of chronic labour shortages.
Temporary Foreign Worker Program: the Canadian Meat Council is advocating for the continued access for the Temporary Foreign Worker Program for Canada's meat industry. Nevertheless, and notwithstanding extensive efforts to recruit domestically, it is the reality of our industry that the number of workers required exceeds, by far, the number of both “lower-skilled” and “higher-skilled” Canadian candidates who are both willing and able to work in Canada's meat processing industry. There is now an application fee of $1000 per Temporary Foreign Worker- if a form has 1 employee or 100 employees the charge is $1000 per worker applied for. If the request is rejected the fee is not refunded. These fees seem much higher than a reasonable cost to process- especially when the request for multiple employees is rejected.
Economic Development: lobbying activity will include briefings, presentations and discussions associated with the Industrial and Technological Benefits (ITB) policy as it relates to defence and civil security programs. The ITB policy is a key evaluated component of many of the federal government programs that Saab competes in, and as such information on the means through which the company aims to address its ITB obligations is worthy of discussion with the relevant government authorities.Read more
Defence: lobbying activities will include discussions, briefing and presentations on Defence and Civil Security related programs. These include, but are not limited to, aerospace programs, maritime/naval programs, land domain programs, training and simulation programs, research and development and civil security related activities
Government Procurement: lobbying activities will include discussions and briefings with the relevant Ministers and members of committees with responsibilities associated with government procurement as it relates to defence and civil security related programs. This is not intended to include any requests for government funding.
