Evaluation of the strategic investments for Northern Economic Development : final report. : R5-87/2009E-PDF

The Strategic Investments in Northern Economic Development Program (SINED or "the program") is a suite of northern economic development initiatives. Its goal is "to promote the economic development of the North, in order to strengthen territorial economies and increase participation by Northerners.” Under the federal Transfer Payments Policy, the terms and conditions of all federal transfer payment programs must be renewed every five years. Funding for SINED's main element expires on March 31, 2009, and the program committed to Treasury Board to conduct a process evaluation by the fall of 2008. The SINED evaluation is a formative evaluation and, as a result, focuses primarily on issues of design and delivery and secondarily on the identification of program outcomes. Because of the short operating time of the SINED program, this formative evaluation was not anticipated to show significant results in the area of impacts.
