Canada Public Policy Project

Canada Public Policy Project

Each student will select a paper from recent issues of Canadian Public Policy (see instructions
below) and prepare a summary of the paper following a briefing note style
https://www.publicsectorwriting.com/?page_id=6. The note should summaries the basic ideas,
methodologies and findings of the paper. The note will be written individually, in each student’s
own words. Students should keep in mind that the potential readers of the note are
Directors/Ministers/future clients who has limited analytical background; therefore, it cannot be
written as simply a technical summary. Each note will follow the format distributed during the
first day of class and, unless otherwise indicated by the instructor, it will not exceed 2 pages (or
500 words) in length, double-spaced and in Times New Roman font size 12 with 1″ margins. You can go through the website (will be provided to the assigned writer along with login information). There are examples and please follow it.
