His Excellency presented the Youth Award to Ms. Stéfany Oliver who accepted the award on behalf of Statistics Canada Young Professionals Network–Big Ideas Conference. In the summer of 2012, Statistics Canada’s Young Professionals Network was asked to organize the Big Ideas Conference, an event that promotes innovation. In response, the team developed a unique online communications campaign featuring a “Great Wall of Ideas” and “idea jams” that encouraged free-form discussion.
