Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
Poll about the advertising complaint registry
-
What is this?
PAAB has been asked to it make it easier to access stage 2 complaint rulings. This has been accomplished by maintaining a registry of all stage 2 rulings on a single webpage in a dynamic table. This complaints page can be accessed any of the following ways:
- By entering "complaints" in the website search field
- By clicking on the menu item "Complaints" found in the RESOURCE page. The RESOURCE page is accessible through the main navigation menu
- By clicking HERE
We've subsequently been asked to consider adding any APS which are subject to future complaints to the registry. Prior to doing so, we would engage in formal consultation with several key stakeholders, including Health Canada and we'd report the consultation findings to our Board. However, before deciding whether to begin this consultation work, we'd like to get a rough idea of the size of the appetite for inclusion of APS within the complaint registry. Please let us know your thoughts by participating in this informal poll. Only users who are registered on the PAAB Forum can vote or to leave comments. Once registered, simply click on the bubble corresponding to your choice then click "Vote" to record your vote. If you see the results screen rather than the options, click “To Voting” to reveal the options.
