=== Where will Crown corporations be required to proactively publish information?===  

Crown corporations and wholly-owned subsidiaries can continue to publish items to their institutional websites, with the option to publish to open.canada.ca. If publishing to open.canada.ca using standardized templates, wholly-owned subsidiaries must publish through the parent organization.  

It is still to be determined where Crown corporations will publish this information upon Royal Assent. All publications must meet Official Languages and accessibility standards. We will post further guidance on this site in the coming weeks.

With respect to publishing to the Open Government Portal, there are standardized templates in place for many existing proactive disclosure requirements (e.g., contracts, travel and hospitality). TBS will develop a standardized template for Titles and Tracking Numbers of briefing notes to facilitate publication to the Open Government Portal and will also provide training and guidance to support organizations to publish to the Open Government Portal more generally.

Crown Corporations can publish any standardized information (Travel and Hospitality) to the Open Government portal using standardized templates. Should Crown Corporations want to publish non-standardized publications to the OG portal (Reports Tabled in Parliament), they will be required to create a metadata record on open.canada.ca that will link back to the publication on their page. This same process applies to all government departments that wish to publish non-standardized information to the Open Government portal. Creating a metadata record on open.canada.ca ensures that all publications are centralized and searchable in one place.  

For proactive publications that are not in standard formats, such as reports tabled in Parliament, Transition binders, Question Period binders, and binders for Parliamentary Committee appearances, institutions may post on departmental websites or on the Open Government Portal. Institutions are encouraged to publish to the Open Government Portal to make the information easily accessible to Canadians.

Publications must meet Official Language and Accessibility standards as per the Government’s Policy on Communications and Federal Identity. TBS will also provide tools and guidance to support institutions in meeting the accessibility requirements in multiple file formats (HTML, PDF, EPUB3, ODF).--!>
