Weekly Message from Our Director & CEO, Stephan Jost

Hello Everyone,

Earlier this week, the Auditor General’s “Value for Money” audits were published. I’d like to reiterate my thanks to everyone who was involved over the course of the past year. A lot of time and effort was devoted to auditors’ requests, which resulted in 19 recommendations, similar in size and scope to the ROM and McMichael Canadian Art Collection (the other two museums audited). All of the recommendations can be achieved within the next six months – some are even helpful! I am glad we can put the audit behind us and focus on continuing to make our museum as efficient and excellent as possible. You can read the full audit, here.

Here is this week’s Diversity & Inclusion learning resource, which continues on the theme of Indigenous learning: https://www.artpractical.com/feature/unintentional-inclusion-and-indigenous-art/.

Thank you,

Stephan
