Fiscal Year for Ts & Cs: 2008-2009
Strategic Outcome: A fair, relevant and accessible Canadian justice system
Program Activity: Stewardship of the Canadian Legal Framework
Description: The objective of the Aboriginal Courtwork Program is to improve access to justice by helping Aboriginal people involved in the criminal justice system obtain fair, just, equitable and culturally sensitive treatment. It is the only ongoing justice related program available to all Aboriginal people (adult and youth), regardless of status and residency. The Program provides Aboriginal persons charged with an offence with timely and accurate information on their rights, obligations, roles and responsibilities at the earliest possible stage of the criminal justice process. Services also include referring clients to appropriate legal and social resources in their community. Aboriginal Courtworkers serve as a "bridge" between criminal justice officials and Aboriginal people and communities by providing information, cultural context, and liaison, and promoting communications and understanding.
Expected results: Contribution agreements with the provinces will support delivery of Aboriginal Courtwork services to ensure access to justice for Aboriginal people within the mainstream Canadian justice system, which will promote fair, equitable and culturally relevant treatment before the courts.

Name of Transfer Payment Program: Implementation of Official Languages Requirements under the Contraventions Act (Voted)
Start date: April 1, 2002
End date: Ongoing
Fiscal Year for Ts & Cs: 2010-2011
Strategic Outcome: A fair, relevant and accessible Canadian justice system
Program Activity: Stewardship of the Canadian Legal Framework
Description: The Contraventions Act provides an alternative to the summary conviction procedure of the Criminal Code for the prosecution of certain offences under federal statutes and regulations. It allows certain federal offences to be prosecuted, using provincial court processes, by means of a ticketing scheme. In 2001, the Federal Court concluded that while the federal government is authorized to use the prosecution scheme of a province to prosecute federal contraventions, it must comply with all language rights requirements that would be applicable in the context of a purely federal prosecution scheme. As a result, in 2003, the federal government established the Contraventions Act Fund to support the implementation of the Contraventions Act in a manner consistent with all applicable constitutional and legislative language rights.
The Fund aims to support provinces and territories in respect of judicial activities and extra-judicial services in both official languages to conform to the Federal Court decision in respect of proceedings instituted under the Contraventions Act.

Name of Transfer Payment Program: Access to Justice Services Agreements in the Territories (in the areas of Legal Aid, Aboriginal Courtwork and Public Legal education and Information Services) (Voted)
Start date: 1996
End date: Ongoing
Fiscal Year for Ts & Cs: 2011-2012
Strategic Outcome: A fair, relevant and accessible Canadian justice system
Program Activity: Stewardship of the Canadian Legal Framework
Description: The goal of the Access to Justice Services Agreements is to integrate federal government funding support to Canada's three territories for access to justice services (including criminal and civil legal aid, Aboriginal Courtwork, and Public Legal Education and Information) through ongoing contribution agreements that allow the territories the flexibility needed to provide these services in a challenging environment (vast distances, harsh climate, cultural/linguistic differences). The overarching goal of federal support for Aboriginal Courtwork services is to facilitate and enhance access to justice by assisting Aboriginal people involved in the criminal justice system to obtain fair, just, equitable and culturally sensitive treatment. With regard to legal aid services in the territories, the federal goal is to enable the territories to provide legal aid services to economically disadvantaged persons involved in serious criminal, youth criminal justice and civil matters. And, with respect to public legal education and information, the goal is to assist the territories in providing members of the public with the legal information they need to make informed decisions and participate effectively in the justice system.
Expected results: Contribution agreements signed with the territories will allow greater flexibility to allocate resources which will enable the territories to deliver access to justice services in the areas of Legal Aid (criminal and civil), Aboriginal Courtwork (ACW) and Public Legal Education and Information.

Subsequent to tabling in Parliament and online publication of the 2012–13 Report on Plans and Priorities, the Department of Justice determined that its Horizontal Initiatives Supplementary lnformation Table contained two errors. The total planned spending for all federal partners at the end of the table was miscalculated and incorrectly entered as $117.1M, where it should have read $108.8M, in both English and French. In addition, the title in English for this table should have read "Total Planned Spending for All Federal Partners for "2012–13" and not "2011–12". The HTML versions of the Horizontal Initiatives Supplementary Information Table have been updated to include the correct information.
Name of Horizontal Initiative: National Anti-Drug Strategy
Name of lead department(s): Department of Justice Canada
Lead department program activity: Stewardship of the Canadian Legal Framework
Start date of the Horizontal Initiative: 2012-131
End date of the Horizontal Initiative: 2016-17 and Ongoing
Total federal funding allocation (start to end date)2: $527.8 M
Description of the Horizontal Initiative (including funding agreement):
The National Anti-Drug Strategy (NADS) was launched by the Government of Canada in 2007, with a clear focus on illicit drugs and a particular emphasis on youth. Its goal is to contribute to safer and healthier communities through coordinated efforts to prevent use, treat dependency and reduce production and distribution of illicit drugs. It encompasses three action plans: prevention, treatment and enforcement.
The prevention action plan supports efforts to prevent youth from using illicit drugs by enhancing their awareness and understanding of the harmful social and health effects of illicit drug use, and to develop and implement community-based interventions & initiatives to prevent illicit drug use. The treatment action plan supports effective treatment and rehabilitation systems and services by developing and implementing innovative and collaborative approaches. The enforcement action plan aims to contribute to the disruption of illicit drug operations in a safe manner, particularly targeting criminal organizations.
Shared outcome(s):
Governance structure(s):
The governance structure of the Strategy consists of an Assistant Deputy Minister Steering Committee and working groups on policy and performance, prevention and treatment, enforcement, and communications. The governance structure is supported by the Youth Justice and Strategic Initiatives Section of the Department of Justice Canada.
The Assistant Deputy Minister Steering Committee (ADMSC), which is chaired by the Department of Justice Canada, oversees the implementation of the Strategy, making decisions necessary to advance the initiative, where required, and ensuring appropriate and timely outcomes for the initiative and accountability in the expenditure of initiative resources. The ADMSC prepares questions for the consideration of Deputy Ministers, where appropriate.
The Prevention and Treatment Working Group, chaired by Health Canada, oversees the implementation of the Prevention and Treatment Action Plans. The Enforcement Working Group, chaired by the Department of Public Safety Canada, oversees the implementation of the Enforcement Action Plan. The Policy and Performance Working Group, chaired by the Department of Justice Canada, oversees policy directions and outcomes for the Strategy and the work of the Sub-Committee on Evaluation and Reporting. The Communications Working Group, chaired by the Department of Justice Canada, oversees communication of the Strategy including, making decisions necessary to advance communication of the initiative and ensuring coordination of communication.
Planning Highlights:
For 2012-13, the 12 federal partner departments and agencies involved in the National Anti-Drug Strategy will continue to focus on contributing to safer and healthier communities through coordinated efforts to prevent use, treat dependency, and reduce the production and distribution of illicit drugs. In response to the recommendations from the Strategy's impact evaluation, Strategy partners will devise new ways to disseminate knowledge, improve communication among the three Action Plans, review the governance structure, and develop a Performance Measurement Strategy. In addition, since Bill C-10 has received Royal Assent, the Strategy partners involved in responding to the impact of mandatory minimum penalties for serious drug offences are now able to access funds which had been set aside in a frozen allotment.

DSCIF plans to enhance the capacity of targeted populations to make informed decisions about illicit drug use. The program's success and progress will be measured by the level/nature of acquired or improved knowledge/skills to avoid illicit drug use within the targeted population, and will be measured by evidence that capacity changes are influencing decision-making and behaviors around illicit drug use and associated consequences in targeted populations.
DSCIF also plans to strengthen community responses to illicit drug issues in targeted areas, and will measure their progress based on the type/nature of ways that community responses have been strengthened in targeted areas. For example, the adoption/integration of evidence-informed/best practices within the targeted areas will indicate the program's contribution to this outcome.
DTFP plans to increase availability of and access to effective treatment services and programs for at-risk youth in areas of need. The Program's success and progress will be measured by the type/nature of treatment services and supports that have been made available by end of FY and will be measured by the program/service utilization trends associated with their populations and areas of need.
DTFP will also seek to improve treatment systems, programs and services to address illicit drug dependency of affected Canadians. The Program's success and progress in this plan will be measured by the extent to which treatment system improvements have been made; perceptions of stakeholders; and, the extent to which uptake/integration of evidence-informed practices has occurred.
First Nations and Inuit Health Branch (FNIHB) plans to increase the availability of and access to effective treatment services and programs for First Nations and Inuit populations in areas of need. The progress of this plan will be measured by the nature of new or enhanced services that have been made available through funding in targeted areas and are based on research or best practices. FNIHB also plans to improve treatment systems, programs and services to address illicit drug dependency in First Nations and Inuit populations in areas of need. The progress of this plan will be measured by:
The Office of Controlled Substances (OCS) plans to reduce the risk of diversion of precursor chemicals by using Strategy funding to improve processes for the issuance of precursor licenses and permits. This will include reviewing and streamlining guidance provided to regulated parties involved in carrying out activities with precursor chemicals, and to law enforcement regarding the application for authorization to dispose of seized controlled substances. The OCS will also strengthen the inspection program through the development of a quality assurance component to ensure consistency in inspections across the country. This includes the development of standardized tools with a national scope (ie. policies, directives, inspection reports, monitoring letters and standard operating procedures etc.). This framework will contribute to increased capacity in the control and monitoring of controlled substances and precursor chemicals. It will also include improving the tools used to record losses and thefts reported to the OCS by regulated parties.
Drug Analysis Services (DAS) plans to improve drug enforcement intelligence and evidence. The success and progress of this plan will be measured by the perceptions of stakeholders regarding the benefit and timeliness of DAS contribution to police response/court. Drug Analysis Services also plans to increase safety in dismantling illicit drug operations. The success and progress of this plan will be measured by the number and nature of injuries to law enforcement officers and other first responders during the investigation and dismantling of illegal drug operations, and will also be measured by the level of additional risk to the environment as a result of investigation and dismantling of illegal drug operations.

This funding will provide the Parole Board of Canada (PBC) the capacity for effective management of its legislated responsibilities for parole decision-making for offenders in relation to the requirements of the new legislation. PBC will collect information and report on workloads and outcomes of parole for provincial offenders incarcerated a as result of new legislative provisions (e.g., the number and proportion of offenders who successfully complete their parole).
This funding will provide the PBC the capacity for provision of information and assistance to victims of crime, observers at hearings and individuals who seek access to decision registry in relation to the requirements of the new legislation. In a similar manner, PBC will report on the extent of involvement of victims, and observers in conditional release processes and the level of satisfaction of these individuals with the information and assistance provided by PBC.
Effective management of both these responsibilities will contribute to public safety and reinforce public confidence in the justice system.
