The goal of the public consultations is to encourage an open discussion of all issues related to renewing and strengthening our place in Canada. While formal presentations are welcomed and encouraged, it is not our intention to have them read into the record at the public consultations. We want to encourage discussion of all issues by as many people as possible.

We want to hear from you
The public consultations are just one way to participate in the work of the Royal Commission. Send us formal written submissions, letters and thoughts by mail or email. We encourage the use of artistic expression, such as poems, songs, plays and posters. You choose the way you would like to express yourself and we will listen.
