I’m an employee of the Canadian government, working in a large department in the National Capital Region.
I have specialized in public environment monitoring and analysis for the last 10 years, and have provided media and stakeholder advisory services to several of the largest Canadian government departments and agencies.
My current research interest is the impact of blogs on government communications and issues management.
Public service employees are governed by many important policies (in addition to common sense) that place limits on what we can and should say publicly about certain issues. So, just to reinforce the disclaimer at the bottom of every page on this site: These are my observations, they are not political in nature, are not to be inferred as comment on any Government policies, and in no way reflect the opinions of my employer.
