Topic: Lobby Hobby: Making sense of public lobbying data

All levels of government have public lobbying registries, but getting and understanding information from them is often cumbersome. I'll present a work in progress, which tries to present lobbying databases in a useful form.

Speaker: Tom Slee

Occasional author, board member of RideFair, a campaign to ensure ride-hailing in Toronto operates in the public interest, and longtime worker in the software industry.

Agenda:

7:00-7:20 Welcome and Introductions

7:20-7:50 Presentation and Q&A/discussion

7:50-9:00 Breakout groups

Code of Conduct:
