Book excerpt: During 1988 the Canada Geoscience Council decided to undertake a forward-looking review of the overall function and role of the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC). The study assessed the mandate and mission of the GSC in light of its historical relevance, present realities, and projected future trends in Canadian geoscience endeavour; ascertained which elements of GSC operations constitute core in-house activities essential to its mandate and to its viability as the national geoscientific institution; and produced perspectives on what should be the nature and level of GSC interaction with earth resource industries, the academic community, federal and provincial jurisdictions, the people of Canada and the international community. This report covers the membership and activities of the Committee and gives recommendations.
