In 2016, membership increased significantly by virtue of strong support from Blueprint 2020, a user interface re-design, and two new GCTools: GCdirectory and GCintranet. The first collaboration platform open to both GC employees and their colleagues beyond the enterprise, GCcollab was piloted in September 2016 using existing open source software called Elgg. GCcollab was launched in May 2017 at the Blueprint (BP) 2020 Innovation Fair. It is the GC’s only platform open to all orders of government, post-secondary institutions, not-for-profit organizations, and individual citizens. It is free for users to access, free of advertising, and practices data ethics. It is designed to enable and enhance communication and collaboration between civil society, the public, and other partners and clients across Canada and beyond. Future services will follow the same principles that shape GCcollab by being inclusive, accessible, and free for all.
