Open Government Consultation Data: 2017-18

From October 2017 to April 2018, the Government of Canada conducted public consultations to develop Canada’s 4th Plan on Open Government (2018-2020). These datasets contain the comments, questions and ideas received, as well as the coding added to conduct the qualitative analysis. Private personal identifiers have been removed from the data. There are three sets of data: one entitled “Compilation” which contains the bulk of the actual comments, the second entitled “Individual Feedback” contains feedback received from participants on the engagement process and the third “Event Table” provides details on the events used to collect the data.

For additional information on the methodology used, please see the “Gathering and Analysis” section of the “What We Heard” report.
