President's Message
In order to better accomplish our mission of ensuring equitable and accurate measurement of goods and services, Measurement Canada is conducting trade sector reviews. Through these reviews, Measurement Canada will identify trade sectors where direct intervention is necessary to assure the accurate measurement of goods and services and other sectors where less intervention is possible with reasonable risk to the parties involved in the measurement transaction. This will allow us to focus our resources on those areas which provide the greatest return for Canadians. Client, business and consumer views, opinions and perspectives will be used to determine the level of intervention in any particular trade sector. Levels of intervention may range from direct intervention through accredited organizations or other private sector partnering arrangements to industry self regulation. Measurement Canada will maintain oversight of measurement accuracy and equity through regular monitoring of the sectors to ensure the intervention levels are appropriate and operating effectively. Trade Sector Review Teams were created to establish, in consultation with clients, business and consumers, the appropriate level of intervention for each sector and to explore possible alternate service delivery mechanisms. Sector stakeholders are invited to inform themselves of the issues in the discussion papers. You are encouraged to actively participate in these consultations. This is your opportunity to have your views heard and to influence the manner in which the accurate measurement of goods and services is achieved in your sector.
