The Closure Letter
Overview
This proceeding concerns the federal handling of a coordination effectiveness measurement framework submitted during an official Government of Canada innovation engagement. The framework proposed a way of measuring coordination effectiveness across public institutions.
The claim does not allege that the Government of Canada used the framework.
It alleges that the Government of Canada made representations about how the submission had been handled, and later made representations that were not consistent with those made during the engagement.
The proceeding asks the Court to determine whether the circumstances of that engagement gave rise to legal obligations, and whether the Government of Canada's subsequent handling of the submission was consistent with those obligations.
