ADM, Planning and Corporate Affairs Bruce Manion
ADM, Public Affairs and Communications Nicole Bourget

Canadian Heritage is organized into a sector structure led by five Assistant Deputy Ministers (ADMs), who report to the Associate Deputy Minister and the Deputy Minister. A number of corporate services branches report directly to the Deputy Minister. These include: Corporate Secretariat, Legal Counsel, Human Resources and Workplace Management, and Portfolio Affairs. The Ombudsman also reports directly to the DM.

Each ADM is accountable for the management of his/her organization and shares the accountability for the delivery of results associated with the seven departmental program activities as set out in the Program Activity Architecture. This model fosters collaboration among sectors.

Directors General, Regiona Executive Directors, Directors and Managers are accountable for program sub-activities and sub-sub-activities and report to their respective ADM.

Introduction to the External User Fees table

The table on external fees for services provided by the Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office is presented below for information, to demonstrate transparency, and to provide context for reporting on these in the subsequent Departmental Performance Report. Inclusion of this table does not signify intent to amend the fees or create new fees in 2006-2007.

Table 8 - External User Fees


Name of user fee Fee levy under the Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit Program (CPTC)
Fee setting authority The Department of Canadian Heritage Act. The Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office (CAVCO) of Canadian Heritage co-administers this program with the Canada Revenue Agency.
Fee type

CAVCO is responsible for determining whether a production is a Canadian film or video production and for estimating eligible labour expenditures.

The fees are for CAVCO issuance of a Canadian Film or Video Production Certificate and a Certificate of Completion once the production is complete and meets the Canadian content requirements, and is thus eligible for the Canadian Production Tax Credit.

There are also fees for an amended certificate already issued and a certified copy of an already issued certificate.

Reason for original fee introduction in 1995

CAVCO is a Vote Netted Revenues organization. It had two objectives for originally establishing the fee structure:

  • to establish fees that would be simple and equitable for the entire audio-visual industry; and
  • to recover the cost of the services provided by CAVCO.

In 2004, CAVCO modified the user fee structure for the CPTC program to maintain service standards.

For more detailed information on the CAVCO user fees, please see: (http://www.pch.gc.ca/progs/ac-ca/progs/bcpac-cavco/index_e.cfm).

Table 12 - Sustainable Development Strategy

Canadian Heritage policies and programs contribute to improving sustainable development in Canadian society. They help protect our heritage and build present-day Canada, to establish more clearly the rightful place and increasing influence of Canada's culture for future generations. Nevertheless, the Department expects to further integrate sustainable development principles and values with its strategic and operational activities in its Sustainable Development Strategy for 2007–2009. Even though it will be submitted in December 2006 under the regulatory requirements, the strategy development process is already under way. A new coordinator has been appointed and given the mandate to clarify policy considerations and to improve the way in which the Department's sustainable development commitments can be integrated with its activities and responsibilities. Although still at the preliminary stage, research has been initiated to better define how the concept of sustainable development can be applied to the realm of culture, the role of culture in transforming a “place” into a “community” and the existence of inextricable links between the cultural, social, economic, political and environmental factors in building sustainable communities.

The 2006–2007 fiscal year will be a transitional one for Canadian Heritage in this respect. The third and final year of implementation of the 2004–2006 sustainable development strategy overlaps the year in which the 2007–2009 strategy will be developed. The Department will rely on the knowledge gained from the efforts made to date, and specifically, the lessons learned throughout the preparations for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Vancouver, to consolidate the sustainable development strategy planning and its implementation.

Finally, in the coming year, the Department will implement the new policy on “green procurement,” effective April 1, 2006; review the procedures on performing strategic environmental assessments; and develop a new procedure to ensure that it meets its obligations under the 1999 Cabinet Directive on the strategic environmental assessment of policies, plans and programs.

Table 13 - Planned Audits and Evaluations

The Department's list of planned audits and evaluations is limited to carry-over audits and evaluations for 2006-2007. A new risk-based integrated audit and evaluation plan was developed in extensive consultation with all program sectors. This multi-year audit and evaluation plan is being finalized for approval.
