Digital Transformation
1
Service delivery and technology are at the core of the ICT landscape in Canada and are constantly evolving. We know that today’s tech savvy citizens expect the same level of experience from government departments as they do when they bank, shop, or communicate and to meet these expectations the public sector must transform, and they need to do it in real-time. The explosion of mobile technologies, the need to modernize or even replace legacy systems, establish public private partnerships and move towards becoming smart and connected governments is pushing the public sector to transform.

Open Government & Citizen Engagement
3
Open data is key for citizen participation and citizen participation really occurs when governance is open. Citizens expect their government to be open, transparent and accountable and active citizenship is required to propel policy-making forward. Good decision making in government requires the input and experiences from the citizens that it serves. Providing access to the information is one piece of the Open Government puzzle. In order to engage citizens effectively in open dialogue governments must design the process to empower citizens to truly participate.
