Subject: [Canadaoer] Re: Federal Pre-Budget Consultation (2025) - Briefs Due Aug 2
Hi Michael,
Is it too late to add us as an endorser? I sent Ann the confirmation today as I had to get
our Executive Committee to confirm approval, and a couple were out sick with COVID.
If it’s not too late, the name to use would be, “Council of Atlantic Academic
Libraries-Conseil des bibliotheques postsecondaires de l’Atlantique /
AtlanticOER-RELAtlantique” with an accent in the bibliotheques.
Sincerely,
Cynthia

Hi Everyone,
Thanks to all who contributed or endorsed the brief. I've submitted it today in
advance of the deadline.
As our federal landscape will be increasingly shaped by the upcoming 2025 election and its
result, I hope we can continue the conversations around how best to engage the federal
government with regard to supporting OER.
In the meantime, I hope everyone has a good long weekend.
Michael

Hi Everyone,
The House of Commons Finance Committee (FINA) has announced its regular pre-budget
consultation (for 2025). Link:

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-Framework-for-Open-Educational-Resources-in-Canada.pdf>),
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
