Hi Everyone,
The House of Commons Finance Committee (FINA) has announced its regular
pre-budget consultation (for 2025). Link:
https://www.ourcommons.ca/committees/en/FINA/StudyActivity?studyActivityId=…
In that regard, perhaps there could be some sort of coordinated approach -
either we could aim to have groups and individuals agree on a common ask
(perhaps based on the advocacy work to date/the National Framework
<https://www.carl-abrc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/A-National-Advocacy-Fra…>),
or alternatively we could develop a document that would allow anyone to
sign on and then try to get as many signatories as possible.
I recognize coordinating over July is a bit of a mess (especially with the
brief due right before a long weekend).
Michael
Hi Susan:
Sorry I was on a PD day yesterday so missed that call.
I just wanted to let you know that there is a general OER submission that
is being sent in as a Pre-Budget submission that Michael M. and I are
working on that is based on the CARL brief that has been sent through the
cross country listserv "BCcampus OER Listserv (canadaoer(a)lists.bccampus.ca)"
<canadaoer(a)lists.bccampus.ca>
This initiative was based on the request of Valerie Irvine last year to do
a wider submission. We do have some signatories and will be sending out a
final reminder today.
We are going to submit it tomorrow.
