Hi,

 

This just popped up in my Twitter feed and I haven’t seen it advertised elsewhere but the GoC is holding cross country consultations on open government:

 

“This is your chance to help shape the future of open government in Canada! Our goal is to hear what Canadians coast to coast to coast want to see in our next plan. Tell us your ideas, experiences, insights and stories on what open government means to you; what is or isn’t working well so far and where you think open government needs to go.”

Consultations in Vancouver & Victoria are up next.

 

Carla
