CIF Bulletin

Consultation on CIF Strategic Plan for 2019 begins in August!

​Strategic Plan Consultation Process

Development of the new strategic plan will be done in a series of four steps that include:

1. Stakeholder consultation period: Multi-channel input for all stakeholders: Q3, 2018
2. Draft strategic plan development: Q4, 2018
3. Comment period on draft strategic plan: Q4, 2018
4. Finalize new strategic Plan: Q1, 2019

Through the consultation period, we'll be contacting CIF stakeholder organizations as well as individuals. Several opportunities will be made available to provide your thoughts on the next set of priorities for the CIF. We'll begin to roll out these opportunities in early August and we'll very much want to hear from you.

CIF Strategic Plan Consultation Webpage

The new CIF Strategic Plan Consultation webpage will be your best source of up to date information on the consultation. On the new webpage you'll find background on the CIF and links to information about our work to date. You'll also find access to consultation documents, information about issues, priorities and news about how to share your views. We're endeavouring to make sure all who want to participate get a chance. And of course, we'll send regular bulletins to CIF email subscribers.

Looking toward the future

We need your input to help define the direction of the CIF going forward. Recognizing that the timelines are tight, we thank you in advance for sharing your views and helping to determine how the CIF can best continue to contribute to your efforts to successfully deliver Ontario's rapidly evolving Blue Box Program.
