'''Dr. Martin Nicholas'''
 
|One month after retirement from the Federal Public Service, I returned in October 2020 to work on Anti-Racism, Anti-Discrimination and Inclusion and Belonging in the federal public service. I had worked for 30 years at Health Canada on compliance and enforcement of federal legislation. For 25 years, I worked from the side of my desk, to be actively involved in employment equity (EE) as a Chair 0f EE and other related committees.  I served on the Steering Committee (1997-2003) for the Implementation of Landmark CHRT Order on racial discrimination against Health Canada [https://decisions.chrt-tcdp.gc.ca/chrt-tcdp/decisions/en/item/6924/index.do?q=NCARR (https://decisions.chrt-tcdp.gc.ca/chrt-tcdp/decisions/en/item/6924/index.do?q=NCARR]), which includes 7 Permanent Corrective Measures that are still applicable in 2022. Mr. Ian Shugart, the Clerk who launched the Call to Action was my Champion. The Special Corrective Measures (SCMs) in the Order provide insight to all federal institutions into what duty of care and due diligence is required for complying with the EE Act and EE Regulations in their current form. Notably, the SCMs call for redressing the effects of past discrimination in accordance with substantive equality enshrined in Section 15 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
