About Open Government
Open government means the government is transparent with information and accountable for decisions. It also means people are involved in making decisions. To do this, the government works with people, communities, businesses, and civil society.
Open government is based on the principles of transparency, accountability and public participation. Transparency means sharing the government’s data and information and making it easier for people to access them. Accountability means holding government responsible for their actions and decisions. Public participation means involving people in decisions about government policies and programs.
The Government of Canada is committed to being open.
About this consultation

This is a chance for you to share your ideas and stories, and what matters to you most in open government. You can do so by completing the questionnaire below, participate in the Idea Board that you can access below and/or by submitting your ideas by email.

There are two parts to this questionnaire:
Part 1: collects your ideas for actions the Government of Canada could consider taking.Participants are free to decline to answer any individual question in Part 1.
