In fact, we are already in contact with our colleagues at Build Canada Homes to gain access to data and be able to share it. We are, of course, contributing to the discussion and hope to gain access to the data.
That said, operational data is, by definition, often data intended for a very operational purpose. Standardizing this data requires a great deal of work if we want to use it for research purposes.
Requirements vary from one project to another. Therefore, the data doesn't necessarily have the consistency needed to be used directly. This applies to most government programs, whether in housing or other areas. Part of this work requires a lot of time and human resources. We must ensure that this data is comparable across projects and can be used to produce reports for research purposes.
