Our sincere gratitude to the Clerk of the Privy Council Michael Wernick for his continued support of Canada Beyond 150 and ongoing commitment to make the Canadian public service more diverse, inclusive, modern, and open.

Canada Beyond 150 was made possible through the support of hundreds of stakeholders and partners whom were engaged over the 10 month journey. Those of us who worked on the program, as well as the participants, benefited greatly from the energy and insights we have received from numerous individuals from diverse backgrounds.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to Canada Beyond 150.
