I needed to be able to communicate information specific to Crown Corporations, most of whom do not have access to GCpedia. Building a site on GCwiki allowed me to have a central, open place to share this information with this audience.

We chose the GCwiki as it was accessible to those external to the GC firewall and we had more than 90 volunteers from all over the region and beyond that needed to access the material. We were able to incorporate the guide, as well as how to join a volunteer briefing session all in one, easy for us and the participants, a one-stop shop.
- Also we could use the built in editor, made it easy, you didn’t need to know coding per se but helpful
- We could add French parallel site
- Could add pictures and layout design, similar to medium per se
- Information would open and accessible for others that wish to model the guide for their own conference, event, etc.

I wanted to find a way to integrate my passion for creative writing into government innovation, so I created a GCconnex group called GOC Innovation through Creative Writing," where public servants can communicate innovative ideas through short stories and poetry. The group has been going for a few years now and has expanded onto GCcollab through the group, "Creative Writers." Over 50 pieces of creative writing have been shared in the group. When I left the government to do my master's I handed it off to Scott Stewart in 2018. On a casual contract at ESDC in 2020, I was pleased to find that the group is still active.

In the group there have been occasional experiments like a recorded reading and custom illustrations to accompany creative writing pieces.

The Knowledge Vine engages a broad audience (576 members) on current and emerging tax issues by using infographics to simplify complex topics. Members are exposed to a diverse array of tax related issues to stimulate thought and discussion within the group. This grass-roots initiative is supported by our partner, the Canada Revenue Agency Young Professionals Network (CRA YPN).

The Human Resources Council uses GCconnex as a hub for information to HR Council members and the supporting community. All information about HRC Events, MCC Awards, HR Projects, and Tools/Best Practices is posted there. The HR Council is comprised of all Heads of HR from the core public administration as well as separate agencies and crown corporations. As senior managers in their own departments, HRC members contribute to the achievement of the people management agenda by ensuring that the needs of their organization are met and that their Deputy Head is positioned to fulfill all of his or her responsibilities for people management.
