Open Data Book Club - mydem0cracy.ca

On Thursday, February 23, Toronto will hold its 19th Open Data Book Club (http://opendatabook.club/)... an idea borrowed from Open Data Ottawa (https://youtu.be/5DiBSloGRl0?t=3h15m36s).

This concept is the same as a regular book club, but instead of discussing books, we discuss an Open Data Set from either the Municipal, Provincial, or Federal levels of government.

This month we are looking at the data set collected by the team at mydem0cracy.ca (https://mydem0cracy.ca/). This tool was created as an answer to Canada's Federal Election Reform survey (https://www.mydemocracy.ca/) and to "understand both the diverse opinion groups and also the majority opinions shared by all. It’s about understanding consensus."

We will have Pat Connolly and Derek Howard from mydem0cracy.ca to listen to your feedback and answer any question you might have. Pat and Derek are also trying to get the federal government and Vox Pop Labs involved in this meetup.

ACTION ITEMSNOTE: You do not need to create anything to attend an Open Data Book Club Meetup. Feel free to come and just listen or ask questions :-).

1. Have a look at this data set (not available yet).

2. Create a visualization or analysis based on its content. Do not hesitate to add layers from other data sets.

3. Come to the meetup and showcase your work.
