Recent Government of Canada Publications from the Weekly Acquisitions List
The Government of Canada's Weekly Acquisitions List can be a great way to discover new research reports published by various public bodies and agencies of the federal government.
It is a record of all publications catalogued in the previous week.
Some of the documents in the most recent list include:
- Electronic records as documentary evidence (Canadian General Standards Board): "CAN/CGSB-72.34 specifies principles, methods, and practices for the creation (i.e. making, receipt, and capture) and management of all forms of electronic records (e.g. e-mail, cartographic, audio-visual, textual, multimedia, etc.) to support their admissibility [see admissibility (records), admissibility (rules), and weight (of evidence)] as evidences in legal proceedings. Because this standard provides only general legal, management and technical information, users should seek further advice before applying its recommendations to specific records or systems. This standard is harmonized with applicable federal, provincial and territorial acts in force and their pursuant regulation at the time of the Committee’s deliberations. Where differences exist between an act or a regulation and this standard, the former will prevail."
- Annual Report 2023-2024 (Communications Security Establishment): "Canada is facing new and evolving security threats, including climate change and its impacts on the Arctic, cybercrime, violent extremism, and threats from Russia, China, and other nation states to the international rules that keep us all safe. But the work CSE is doing across all aspects of its mandate plays a significant role in protecting Canada from these threats now and into the future. We are pleased to present this annual report, which details CSE’s record of success in combating cybercrime and the emerging threats facing Canada and the world. The report highlights to Canadians what CSE has done over the past year. Reports like these are vital for an open and accountable government and help build public faith in our institutions."
- Special Bulletin on financial activity associated with suspected sanctions evasion (Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada): "Under the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (the Act), the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) produces strategic intelligence to provide analytical perspectives on the nature and scope of money laundering, terrorist activity financing, the financing of threats to the security of Canada, and sanctions evasion. This Special Bulletin provides background information relevant to Canada’s sanctions regime and aims to inform reporting entities on the characteristics of completed or attempted financial transactions related to suspected sanctions evasion to support their ability to meet expanded obligations under the Act, effective August 19, 2024."
- RECALL TO REIMAGINE: (Re)Creating the Law Commission of Canada (Law Commission of Canada): "The spring of 2023 marked a fresh start for the Law Commission of Canada, an independent federal agency mandated with the study, review, and development of Canada’s law and legal systems in ways responsive to changing needs across this country. Active from 1997- 2006, the Commission reemerged from a 17-year hibernation (...) In this paper, the Law Commission of Canada demonstrates its commitment to learning from the past by drawing guidance and insights from the structure and work of its earlier version. As suggested by the paper’s title, recreating the Law Commission of Canada relies on imagination grounded in recall. The directives that frame Part I — “recall, remember and retell” — invite us to look back to the Law Commission of 1997-2006. Those of Part II — “rebuild, resituate, reimagine” — capture the mission and promise of today’s Law Commission. The work of recall should provide foundations to inspire and shape reimagined projects and potential."
