OTTAWA,
ON, June 9, 2024 /CNW/ - The Prime Minister,
Justin Trudeau, today issued the
following statement on National Public Service Week:
"Today, I join Canadians across the country in marking the
beginning of National Public Service Week. This is an opportunity
to recognize the invaluable role of Canada's public service and its workforce in
building a country that is fairer, safer, and more prosperous for
everyone.
"Canada's public servants are
delivering on the priorities top of mind for Canadians. From
developing policies to get more homes built, to rolling out
programs that improve healthcare, to providing services that help
Canadians get ahead, Canada is
better because of its public servants.

advance renewed conversations on values and ethics, and create
environments where employees always feel valued and respected. This
work builds on our ongoing efforts to improve workplace wellness
and accessibility, as well as encourage greater diversity and
inclusion.
"On behalf of the Government of Canada, to our federal public servants: I
thank each and every one of you for your dedication and expertise.
It's because of your service that we can keep working to make
Canada even better."
