Are cc'd on the e mail gc.ca

A very specific question!

CC stands for "Carbon Copy" or "Courtesy Copy", and it's a way to send a copy of an email to someone who is not the primary recipient, but may be interested in the content of the email.

In the case of gc.ca, which is the official website of the Government of Canada, CC'ing someone on an email typically means that the email is being sent to a government employee or official who is not the primary recipient, but may be interested in the content of the email.

For example, if a government employee sends an email to a colleague about a project they are working on, they may CC the Minister of the department or a senior official to keep them informed about the project's progress.

In general, CC'ing someone on an email is a way to:

• Keep them informed about a particular topic or project
• Seek their input or feedback
• Provide them with information that may be relevant to their work or responsibilities
• Document the communication and keep a record of the email

It's worth noting that CC'ing someone on an email is different from BCC'ing (Blind Carbon Copy), which is used to send an email to someone without including their email address in the "To" or "CC" field.
