Member Resources
This is a start. This needs to be a community project. GOOD started an open information clearinghouse http://alpha.ouropenhub.ca/ in 2018. It was meant to be a starting point and now is the time to get the project back on track. The project will get a restart at the GOOD21 Hackathon on Saturday May 8, 2021.
In the meantime, we offer up this page for people to have some references of open information that can assist you in your open data, open gov initiative. We’d love your suggestions where to take this for our open community. We encourage you to contribute your resource references by contacting us at connect@go-opendata.ca
