Cross-Cultural Roundtable on Security

The Cross-Cultural Roundtable on Security was created to engage Canadians and the Government of Canada in a long-term dialogue on matters related to national security. The Roundtable brings together citizens who are leaders in their respective communities and who have extensive experience in social and cultural matters. It focuses on emerging developments in national security matters and their impact on Canada's diverse and pluralistic society.

The group provides advice and perspectives to the Minister of Public Safety and the Minister of Justice, concerning matters of national security. The concept of the Cross-Cultural Roundtable was built into the National Security Policy. Roundtable members were first appointed on February 8, 2005. Subsequent appointments were announced on March 13, 2008. Throughout 2008-2009, additional new members will be appointed to the Roundtable, as current members complete their terms.
