Reporting
As noted, there are several avenues of engagement occurring simultaneously and further engagement activities are planned for 2023-2024. As such, it is important to contextualize the information found in this report.
This report only includes the feedback and insights collected through the 26 Justice Canada-led virtual engagement sessions hosted from November 2022 to March 2023 and the related activities hosted on the online engagement platform.
In order to capture the information that was shared during the engagement dialogues accurately, each meeting was recorded and transcribed. Additionally, detailed and summary were also prepared on each session. These transcripts and notes are available upon request. For anonymity and confidentiality reasons, the comments are not attributed to individuals in any of our materials.
A team of data analysts read the notes and transcripts from all meetings and developed a list of more than 50 commonly heard themes. Each transcript was then coded using these themes, highlighting comments and insights that spoke to these themes. In this way, we were able to determine which themes were most commonly discussed within individual meetings, in multiple meetings with the same demographic and distinctions, and across all dialogue sessions. Throughout this document, we have done our best to contextualize our thematic findings using participants’ voices.
Upon reviewing the coded data, we determined that six main themes were discussed many times in each meeting across every region and distinctions-based group. These six themes are expanded upon in the What We Heard Across All Meetings section below. There were many other common themes that were explored during meetings—but in many cases, certain demographics or distinctions-based groups were more vocal regarding particular themes than others. In these cases, we have expanded on those themes in the sections pertaining to each demographic. The complete code list can be found in Appendix A.
This report also summarizes the feedback gathered through the online engagement platform’s ideation activities.
