I think we must have a re-direct or something on the /ckan directory. The instance is resolvable at https://open.canada.ca/ckan/en/dataset. Open by Default is a separate instance of CKAN the Canadian Gov was using to provide people with early access to documents that did not go through a formal release process. Content is mostly static now.

I'll get that re-direct addressed, hopefully not a blocker to merge.

Also I just discovered this project yesterday, really cool👍 Hoping to use this to automate publishing of some datasets to our ckan such as https://github.com/PatLittle/OpenGov_R_Scripts/blob/master/covid_dataset_tracker.R directly from Github actions.

Okay, sounds good, not a blocker.

Good to hear ckanr might be useful for publishing datasets, 🤞🏽 that it works out.
