LMS ePostcards

Lands and Minerals Sector ePostcard Campaign

Basic Information

Natural Resources Canada's Land's and Minerals Sector has launched an exciting collaborative campaign to encourage that the science and technology developments, exciting field research, and fantastic employees and partners, are properly showcased both in and out of government. Our team, the Science and Technology Liaison Office has built a program for our staff to submit their personal photos, along with some identification and a description, for display within our department and on the web. It is a pre-Comms product, which means that while we put all the pieces together, they can be used externally by other groups like our Social Media team, Web Publishing group, and more!

Started in 2016, the first pilot of ePostcards was a great success with over 75 fantastic submissions[1] including slice-of-life glimpses into our programs, photographs of landscapes so beautiful they could easily be in National Geographic, to simply smiling researchers doing what they do best.

Now it's your turn. Check out these reference documents on this page, print out our take away brochure or carry card (Wallet sized!), and send us your amazing photographs!

NEW! A pretty simple template that keeps all tabbed content on a single page. Instructions here.


Colourful, but not for the faint of heart. The tab code is contained in a template; the trancluded template has options to specify which tab is has the focus and which are linked. For each page the template is transcluded on, that page tab should be specified as the focus while others are specified as link. The template code is here. If you need help, you might want to contact a peer helper for assistance.

Less colourful, but still not for the faint of heart. Code is here.
