What we've seen in Canada, at the municipal level, are various developments of programs that have been of service to citizens and that would not have been developed by the municipal governments. So at the municipal level, they have schedules for bus routes. With having the information disclosed, they were able to develop programs where you have access to when and where your bus is going show up. It's the same thing with garbage collection and the same thing with openings of various municipal institutions.
We haven't seen much of that being developed at the federal level, although if you talk to somebody like Tracey Lauriault, who is a researcher at Carleton University, she has made tremendous use of geospatial data. She is able to do research in terms of various developments of communities, using the data she collects from the government.
The U.S. is a big proponent of the disclosure of public sector information in order to promote innovation. People who have the technology savvy are able to use the data and develop new applications.
Again, I would urge you to talk to people who have actually done it. They can bring you various examples. Some of these people are on the list of witnesses.
