Evaluate use of consultations data for federal government consultations and develop importer #1

Open JavedNissar opened 5 years ago

Determine how to use the links at the top of the following page to track federal consultations: https://www.canada.ca/en/government/system/consultations/consultingcanadians.html And use these links to develop an importer that will grab those consultations and place them in our database. The best approach is probably to set up a job that runs regularly checking if there are any consultations our system doesn't know about yet and then if there is, we run the importer on those consultations.

Description?

JavedNissar commented 5 years ago

Just writing up issues right now, I'll hopefully get around to writing descriptions tomorrow

Can we tag the project as Public Consultations, so we can keep track of its progress on our board?

Sounds good

Description has been added, I've discovered that the Feds put out CSVs with their consultations. I haven't looked at it too much but its an avenue worth exploring.
