Description:

The 2007 Annual Report to Parliament on Crown Corporations and Other Corporate Interests of Canada is prepared in accordance with sections 151 and 152 of the Financial Administration Act. These sections require that the president of the Treasury Board table annually a consolidated report on the businesses and activities of all parent Crown corporations. The president is also required to indicate when reports and summaries were due to be tabled in each House and when they were actually tabled. This report is a unique source of information on the Government of Canada’s corporate holdings. It provides comprehensive information on the activities of all Crown corporations and their wholly owned subsidiaries, as well as the other corporate interests of Canada. Information on the performance of a number of Crown corporations is also highlighted in the report.

The report for 2007 presents additional information, including a description of the federal institutional forms that make up the Government of Canada as well as an inventory of such institutions, collected pursuant to the new Policy on Reporting of Federal Institutions and Corporate Interests to Treasury Board Secretariat. This policy was introduced to assist in the collection of information concerning the current composition of the Government of Canada as well as federal participation in mixed and joint enterprises, international organizations, and shared-governance corporations.

Crown Corporations and Other Corporate Interests of Canada comprises the following chapters:
  1. Overview of Federal Government Institutions: identifies and briefly describes the different types of federal government institutions and provides a listing of institutional forms by ministerial portfolio.
  2. Crown Corporations’ Corporate Holdings: highlights policy developments affecting Crown corporations during the 2007 reporting period, outlines the various types of reviews and audits that Crown corporations have been subjected to, lists parent Crown corporations and their subordinate interests (subsidiaries, associates, and legal partnerships of Crown corporations) by ministerial portfolio (noting changes since last year’s report), and provides consolidated financial and employment information. The reporting period runs from August 1, 2006, to July 31, 2007, unless otherwise stated. Corporate profiles on each Crown corporation have been included in this chapter as well as the required report on the timely tabling of Crown corporation documentation.
  3. Other Corporate Interests of Canada: describes shared-governance, mixed, joint, and international corporations, any corporations or shares held by the government as a result of the provisions of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, and compares changes in corporate interests since last year’s report. This chapter also includes basic information on the composition of the boards of directors of companies in which the federal government holds an interest.
