Thank you for helping us with our study.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3719893\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Minister, you're one of the great communicators of the government, so it's not surprising that you show so much enthusiasm for this particular project. I'm just wondering, how would you rank the federal government's initiatives on this open data area? On March 4, we had one of your officials come in and say that Canada had caught up to the United States and the United Kingdom as leaders. Other witnesses suggested we're still catching up, and still other witnesses suggest we aren't even close to those two countries. Could you give us your perspective on how we're doing relative to the other countries, and to the world?</p>",

Je me demande seulement o\u00f9 vous situez les initiatives du gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral \u00e0 l'\u00e9gard des donn\u00e9es ouvertes. Le 4 mars, un de vos fonctionnaires est venu nous dire que le Canada avait rattrap\u00e9 les \u00c9tats-Unis et le Royaume-Uni qui font figure de chefs de file. D'autres t\u00e9moins ont laiss\u00e9 entendre que nous avons encore du chemin \u00e0 faire, et d'autres que nous sommes encore loin de rattraper ces deux pays. Pourriez-vous nous dire o\u00f9 nous nous situons par rapport aux autres pays et au reste du monde?</p>"
