STEIN LAL, EX-DM MOE, ON GOVERNMENT
Stien Lal joined the public service of Ontario in 1988 as the
Deputy Minister in the Ministry of the Solicitor General and since
then has held that position in five other ministries retiring from
the public service 2001 as the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of
the Environment. During this period,
Ontario
under went unprecedented political change. As a result, Stien Lal
has served in the capacity of Deputy Minister under all three
governments. He now heads a consulting practice at the national
and international level. Stien is a lawyer by profession, having
been first called to the bar in England and subsequently in five
other jurisdictions in Canada and abroad. He was appointed a
Queen's Counsel in 1983.
Notes
Having worked in six ministries in Ontario, he has had the unique
opportunity of seeing and appreciating some of the subtle and
sometimes not so subtle differences between them. The OPS has its
own culture and each Ministry has its own culture driven sometimes
by the nature of their business, sometimes by their mandate or
whether they are a regulatory or a non-regulatory Ministry...continued.
