Wages are deposited directly and over a quarter of Canadians used online bulletin boards to sell products. All of this information flows between businesses and citizens digitally. Billions of transactions occur each year seamlessly, and in fact many institutions use the information available to routinely market products and services to Canadians.

Open building data: An exploratory initiative
A new dataset is now available as a result of an exploratory initiative aimed at enhancing the use and harmonization of open building data from municipal, regional, and provincial sources. An outcome of this exploratory work is a first version of the Open Database of Buildings (ODB), which contains approximately 4.3 million building footprints spanning across seven provinces and one territory. The purpose of this initiative is to contribute to the creation of a complete, comprehensive and open database of buildings in Canada.
