| − | Be the change you wish to see in our organization. Our Diversity and Inclusion Mandate Letter aims to bring together all the leaders and members of the Materiel Group to advance diversity, inclusion and equity within the workplace. We strive to be a leading example in the Federal Public Service for taking action on diversity, inclusion and belonging. This Letter accompanies the existing Call to Action on Anti-Racism, Equity and Inclusion, the 2020-21 Deputy Minister Commitments on Diversity and Inclusion, the 2021 Minister of National Defence Mandate Letter, and the Diversity and Inclusion Areas of Focus for the Public Service, published by the President of the Treasure Board to align with the Government’s Speech from the Throne and recent mandate letters.

| − | Diversity and inclusion work takes commitment. It takes the responsibility to work together, to improve ourselves, and to focus on the people side of business. It takes accountability to recognize and learn from our mistakes. We are all made up of multiple layers that no box can contain, and our workplace must reflect this. To have a diverse and inclusive organization, we must commit to learning about and from our leaders’ and members’ layers and applying their knowledge and experiences to advance the Federal Public Service. A non-diverse workplace means everyone shares the same background, mindset and biases. With the strength of diversity, we can break down those biases, develop creative problem-solving techniques and build a stronger, more inclusive organization.

| − | To do our best work for Canadians, we must first feel physically and psychologically safe at work. One person committed to equity, fairness and psychological safety can elevate the Federal Public service. Imagine what can happen if more people commit to the same. This Mandate Letter is our pledge to the Materiel Group and the advancement of our Defence Team and the Federal Public Service. We pledge to adhere to the commitments outlined in the Letter and update it as we create and grow together.

| − | Director Generals, Directors, Managers, Team Leads, and all Members can sign the mandate letter and execute the commitments, sign it and be provided with the Companion Guide of ideas to enhance individual accountability and remove systemic barriers in our organizations so all individuals can thrive and contribute to the Federal Public Service. We will never be perfect, and that’s alright. Still, together we will make strides to unlearn the unconscious biases that hold us back and build a support system of psychological safety. Inclusion means everyone, always.
