On April 15, 2016, the Law Commission of Ontario, Legal Aid Ontario and the Canadian Forum on Civil Justice hosted a forum titled “Open Data in the Justice System: Opportunities, Challenges & Lessons Learned.” The forum consisted of a panel discussion exploring issues of open data, privacy, and strategies for collecting, releasing and using data. This forum brought together 50 lawyers, academics and provincial government representatives. The event was a response to Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne’s Open Government Initiative.
