How Canada compares

Of the 25 national portals whose catalogues can be counted by subject, Canada ranks 1st for health by number of datasets. Catalogue sizes differ enormously between countries, and a government that splits its publications finely will rank higher than one that does not, so this counts records, not openness.

Where to find it

These datasets are published by Canada’s national open data portal. This site mirrors its catalogue to count it and never republishes the data itself, so browse or search the originals at https://open.canada.ca/data/api/3/action.
