With the establishment of the new Science, Technology and Innovation Council (STIC), the roles and responsibilities of a number of federal advisory bodies, including the Office of the National Science Advisor (ONSA), were reviewed. In this context, the Office will be phased out, the position of National Science Advisor will be discontinued, and the STIC will function as a single external committee, providing the government with independent and integrated advice on science and technology. The Science and Innovation Sector of Industry Canada and the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade will assume programmatic activities of the ONSA.

OBS

Avec la création du nouveau Conseil des sciences, de la technologie et de l'innovation (CSTI), on a examiné les rôles et les responsabilités de plusieurs groupes consultatifs fédéraux, dont ceux du Bureau du conseiller national des sciences (BCNS). À la lumière de cet examen, il a été décidé que le Bureau sera retiré progressivement du service, le poste de conseiller national des sciences sera supprimé et le CSTI fonctionnera comme un comité externe unique qui fournira au gouvernement des conseils indépendants et intégrés en matière de sciences et de technologie. Les activités de programme du BCNS seront effectuées par le Secteur science et innovation d'Industrie Canada et par Affaires étrangères et Commerce international Canada.
