Departmental Results Framework indicators 2018-2019 Edition - Indicator 7: Percentage of services available online

Based on how the Treasury Board defines service, the CRA has established an inventory of services to Canadians. E-enablement refers to the rate at which those services in the inventory are available online for Canadians to self-serve. This indicator measures progress against the CRA’s digital strategy. This service initiative falls under the ministerial mandate priority and under the broader Government of Canada priority of an open and transparent government. Formula/calculation: Sum of each service e-enablement rate divided by 18 services. 

Measurement strategy: The percentage of the service’s activities that are completed online for each service, based on the number of the following applicable interaction points of the service (based on a Treasury Board Secretariat methodology):
•	account registration / enrolment
•	authentication
•	application
•	decision
•	issuance (final output)
•	issue resolution and feedback Services included:
1.	Income tax return filing
2.	Authorize a representative
3.	Goods and services tax (GST)/harmonized sales tax (HST) return filing
4.	GST/HST rulings 
5.	Corporation income tax return filing
6.	Excise duty/tax return filing
7.	Charity information return filing
8.	Partnership information return filing
9.	Canada Child Benefit (CCB) payments
10.	GST/ HST credit payments
11.	Children’s Special Allowances (CSA) payments
12.	Working Income Tax Benefit (WITB) advance payments
13.	Provincial and territorial tax credit payments
14.	Provincial and territorial child benefit program payments
15.	Formal review request (Appeals)
16.	Trust income tax return filing
17.	Business Number (BN) registration
18.	Access to information and privacy Note: Income tax rulings is excluded from the results as it is not suitable for e-enablement.

Departmental Results Framework indicators 2018-2019 Edition - Indicator 10: Incremental revenue resulting from budget investments

This indicator measures the amount of annual incremental federal revenue generated as a result of additional Federal Budget initiatives used to support Government of Canada responsibilities and priorities and the Agency's ultimate outcome: "Canadians meet their obligations, non-compliance is addressed, and Canadians have access to appropriate mechanisms for resolving disputes".
This supports the Minister's Mandate commitment to crack down on tax evaders and combat tax avoidance, as well as the Government priority of growing the middle class.

This indicator is on track to exceed the five-year target of $2.6B by March of 2021. The in-year target for 2018-19 was $1.4B with results of $1.99B. The reported result reflects 2018–19 investments from Budgets 2015, 2016, and 2017. Budgets 2016 and 2017 include some initiatives that extend Budget 2015 funding and expand some existing workloads. Therefore, revenue results include initiatives from all three years' budgets. The incremental revenue is comprised of federal income tax adjustments for the years audited plus future years’ adjustments discounted to the net present value and the value of GST/HST recoveries plus third-party, transfer pricing and gross negligence penalties. It does not account for the impact of appeals reversals and uncollected amounts.

Departmental Results Framework indicators 2018-2019 Edition - Indicator 15: Percentage of taxpayers (benefit recipients) who filed as a result of targeted CRA intervention

Ensures the Agency achieves its responsibilities and priorities of assisting Canadians to meet their filing obligations, while also ensuring Canadians receive the benefits they are entitled to. This value is derived by dividing the total number of taxpayers who filed after the letter was issued by the total number of letters issued. 
This supports the Minister Mandate commitment to ensure that CRA is a client-focused agency that will proactively contact Canadians who are entitled to, but are not receiving, tax benefits.

Reducing substance use stigma in the Canadian health system (infographic)

Stigma begins with the negative stereotyping of people, creating a separation between “us” and “them”. Those who are stigmatized can be devalued and subjected to discrimination, which is unfair treatment due to one’s identity. This can lead to disadvantage and inequitable social and health outcomes.

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish and sediment – TetraBDE concentrations in Lake Trout from Lake Ontario, Canada

The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The Polybrominated diphenyl ethers in fish and sediment indicators identify the drainage regions where concentrations are below or above the Federal Environmental Quality Guidelines (the guidelines) for polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in fish and sediment. The guidelines were developed under the Chemicals Management Plan and are used in this report to evaluate whether, and the degree to which, concentrations in the environment exceed the guidelines. These indicators provide information on the presence of PBDEs in the environment and on the progress of strategies and policies to reduce or control their occurrence in the environment. Information is provided to Canadians in a number of formats including: static and interactive maps, charts and graphs, HTML and CSV data tables and downloadable reports.

System-Wide Staffing Audit Questionnaire

As part of the pilot System-Wide Staffing Audit (pilot audit), a questionnaire was administered to sub-delegated persons and staffing advisors associated with the sample of 386 appointments across the 25 organizations participating in the pilot audit. The purpose of the questionnaire was to provide the Public Service Commission (PSC) with a better understanding of the staffing environment and to contextualize findings of the pilot audit, by gauging these stakeholders’ awareness and understanding of the New Direction in Staffing (NDS), and of their own roles and responsibilities.

These questionnaire results represent a “snapshot” in time: responses were gathered during the early summer of 2017, and were based on perceptions one year after the implementation of the NDS in April 2016. These results were integrated with pilot audit findings stemming from the review of organizational staffing systems and compliance of appointments, which was finalized in 2018.
