Canada's Digital Government

In 2018, Canada was welcomed into the Digital Nations in recognition of its track record in leading digital government, including designing services around citizens’ needs and sharing open government practices.

​

Canada is dedicated to upholding the principles outlined in the Digital Nations Charter and remains committed to working with global counterparts to share best practices, solve common problems and identify improvements to digital services.

 

Since becoming a member, Canada has been an active Digital Nations participant. In 2020, as the Chair, Canada hosted the first fully virtual Digital Nations Ministerial Summit. Canada is currently serving as the Digital Nations Secretariat for 2026 and 2027 and is slated to Chair in 2030.

​

Canada is also a member of the Digital Nations Thematic Working Groups on Artificial Intelligence (AI), Digital Identity, Government Efficiencies and Digital Investment, Digital Sovereignty, and Digital Governance.
