Using both official languages at GCWP

Laura Piper (DTO Chief, Standards and Guidance)

GCWP meetings are a welcoming and safe space, where all are encouraged to speak in their second language, even if it is imperfect.

Misinformation / disinformation campaign

Lauri Sullivan (CSE Marketing Manager)

Online disinformation campaign page was published last week ahead of the ad campaign that started this week.

• Vanity URL: canada.ca/disinformation
• Public Safety previously led on this advertising initiative, but this year CSE took on the lead for the ad campaign, with Principle Publisher’s help
• Involved gathering and building the research expertise across different disinformation themes which are often broad
• Focus groups provided good data to help inform content development, including:
  • “I don’t want the gov to tell me about disinformation but want the tools to do it myself”
  • “I can detect disinformation but I think other people might not”
  • “I don’t want the government to tell me what to believe”
  • “I can judge for myself what is real or not but a list of tools would be great if the tools help make clear decisions”

• The intent is that others not only amplify but make social media messages on mis/disinformation themselves as it relates to their departments
• Contact Lauri or Nancy Paille if you have content to link to
