New Canadian ernment Calls for “Machine-readable Data”.There was an election in Canada this week,and one of the key elements in the new ernment’s platform centered on transparency in ernment,including a call that “all ernment data and information is made open by default in machine-readable,digital formats”.This development is good news for Canada in general and will hopefully give a boost to XBRL adoption in that untry.Standard Business Reporting (SBR)has been remmended at the Parliamentary level in the past and the hope is that a new majority ernment might clear the way.

That effort will get an additional boost next month when XBRL Canada holds an SBR seminar for stakeholders in Ottawa.Keynote Speakers will include Roy Warden,of HMRC in the UK and Elina Koskentalo of XBRL Finland.There will be a discussion of the progress of XBRL and SBR in those untries along with an examination of current events in Canada.Learn more at .
