NOTE: To help you prepare, the Division will send stakeholders a copy of the draft transition plan—closer to the meeting date. So, stay tuned.

Can’t make the meeting? That’s OK. You can still provide input by completing an online feedback form—available from January 30 to February 3. EIPS will send the feedback form link to stakeholders and post it online following the public information session.

EIPS encourages everyone to attend the upcoming public information session and share their thoughts—as it will help inform next steps and fine-tune the final version of the transition plan. In the meantime, for more information, visit eips.ca. We look forward to seeing you there!
