As the province overhauls its data infrastructure, Ontario is putting the call out to public organizations and businesses to help it create a new provincial data authority.
Ontario is putting extra focus on ensuring that information collected is “private, secure, anonymous and cannot identify people individually,” according to Finance and Data Transformation Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy, who on Friday announced the latest step in the province’s digital transformation strategy.
The process began in 2019 with the launch of a public consultation on creating a new data strategy for the province.
The newly announced Data Authority will be responsible for building a modern data infrastructure and securely housing provincial datasets.
