The CMCC's five-year strategic plan committed the
Corporation to an Employment Equity Programme that
"reflects the diverse population in Canada and the
Museum's target clienteles". The programme has been
implemented and received a ringing endorsement this year
from the Employment Equity Branch, Human Resources
Development. The Branch gave CMCC an "A" rating for its
work in the following categories: Women, Aboriginal People
and Visible Minorities. As of March 31, 1995, the CMCC had
578 employees, comprising 466 full-time staff and 112 part-
time staff. As of April 29, 1995, this number will be
reduced to 535.
This year, the CMCC completed two major construction
projects in its expansion of the Children's Museum. The
first project was an upgrade of various systems within the
new space (architectural, electrical, ventilation,
communications, etc.) and finishes to ceilings, floors and
walls. The second project involved extending the building to
enclose an exterior patio; creating an additional route into
the Marius Barbeau Salon; and the creation of a new
Children's Boutique. These renovations added an additional
112 square metres, or 1,205 square feet, of space to the CMC
and an additional 1,000 square metres, or 10,764 square
feet, of exhibition space to the Children's Museum.
