“…The expertise a particular ministry develops with respect to the third sector is utilized on a circumstantial basis as defined above, but does not readily penetrate on‐going administrative or consultative protocols or policy priorities. This is reflected in the patchwork nature of funding contracts (Frankel and Levasseur ; Garcea and DeSantis ), even though a general desire to harmonize and rationalize existing practices may have been articulated.…”

“…In Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec this centralization occurs within a cross‐cutting ministry (Housing and Community Development) in Manitoba; the cabinet in Ontario; and in a partnership of two central ministries (Ministère des Affaires municipales, des Régions et de l'Occupation du territoire and the Ministère et de l'Économie) in Quebec. The ministry of Housing and Community Development in Manitoba has consolidated its centralized position by leading a cross‐cutting third sector funding reform initiative and is the designated lead on third sector policy (Frankel and Levasseur ; interview respondent, 2013). In Ontario the cabinet serves as a vetting and allocation point on third sector strategies while in Quebec the newly minted Social Economy Law centralizes the coordination and implementation of third sector (read social economy) policy (Le gouvernement du Québec ; interview respondent, 2013).…”

Across Canada, provincial governments are engaged in a "third wave" of consultations, policy dialogues, and policy alignment strategies with the third sector. Unexplored to date is how provincial governments internally administer their third sector file. This internal configuration could have important implications for internal adherence to cross-cutting policy mandates as well as third sector policy implementation and bilateral collaboration agreements. This is a new point of analysis for public administrators and third sector intermediary organizations alike. This comparative analysis of network governance structures in eight provincial governments reveals that some structures are more compatible with policy alignment and implementation than others.Sommaire : Dans tout le Canada, les gouvernements provinciaux participent à une « troisième vague » de consultations, de dialogues sur les politiques, et de stratégies d'alignement des politiques avec le secteur bénévole et communautaire. Inexplorée jusqu'à présent, la question est de savoir comment les gouvernements provinciaux administrent à l'interne leur secteur bénévole et communautaire. Cette configuration interne pourrait avoir des répercussions importantes sur l'adhérence interne aux mandats en matière d'orientations multidisciplinaires ainsi que sur la mise en oeuvre des politiques du secteur bénévole et communautaire et sur les accords de collaboration bilatéraux. Il s'agit d'un nouveau point d'analyse à la fois pour les administrateurs du secteur public et pour les organismes intermédiaires du secteur bénévole et communautaire. Cette analyse comparative des structures de gouvernance de réseaux au sein de huit gouvernements provinciaux révèle que certaines structures sont plus compatibles que d'autres avec l'alignement et la mise en oeuvre des politiques.
