Some former CEOs and senior public servants have assembled a task force to advise the federal government on how it can make better decisions and be more accountable in key areas.
The nine-member task force includes a former national security adviser to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, a former CEO of energy giant Trans Mountain Corporation, and former deputy ministers in several departments.
In a press release, the group says it’s going to consider reforms in three priority areas: digital government and AI, major projects and Arctic sovereignty.
It’s planning to give Ottawa independent advice on how to simplify decision-making, co-ordinate internally and modernize the public service.
The group says it has a yearlong mandate.
Its financial backers include the Clean Economy Fund, the Hewitt Foundation, the Ivey Foundation and the Jarislowsky Foundation.
