Appendix A Delegation Presentation Material Re: Application to address Trust Council From: Paul Petrie < Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2026 9:30 AM To: Executive Admin Subject: Re: Application to address Trust Council Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Completed Hi Alexandra, Thank you for the clarification of what is required to support my presentation to Trust Council. I will address 3 issues in my presentation to Trust Council as summarized below. 1. Given the findings in the May 2026 phase 4 Public Engagement Report, I will propose an option for Trust Council to consider for the draft Trust Policy Statement consistent with the guidance offered to Trust Council in the Minister’s April 28, 2025 letter. 2. On the basis of the 2025-26 budget, I will share my views on steps to better reconcile the budget consistent with the statutory Object of the Trust and with the current Trust Policy Statement. 3. After reviewing Canada v. Vavilov and the subsequent Auer v. Auer, I will propose an approach for revising the outdated Trust policy 1.3.1 for implementing the “contrary to or at variance with” test in section 15 of the Act.
