Message from the Director of Public Prosecutions

I am pleased to present the 2011-2012 Report on Plans and Priorities for the Public Prosecution Service of Canada.

The PPSC is an independent and accountable prosecuting authority, with a mandate to provide prosecutorial services and advice across Canada in a manner that is fair, impartial, and objective.

This report sets out how the PPSC plans to continue to deliver on this mandate in the coming year. It also identifies our corporate and management priorities in support of our mandate.

The PPSC faces ongoing challenges in areas including workload and resourcing, but PPSC staff continue to meet those challenges while demonstrating our key values: respect, integrity, excellence, and leadership.
