@mlenc Thanks for sharing this! Enlightened my morning, will stay with me.

So often i discover things, people, ideas i would have never found if it weren’t for your tweets. 

“We can take the universe in our hands and make it better. We can fill it with value.”

This is what you do ☺️

It has been a privilege to attend #ICAO41 and witness the important work being done to make air travel and airports safer, greener and better. ✈️

Incredibly proud that Canada (and my home town of @Montreal!) is host to this important @UN body

[Omar Alghabra @OmarAlghabra]

I delivered a speech at #ICAO41 about international partners working collaboratively, finding justice for PS752, reducing pollution in the aviation sector, and our support for Ukraine. Canada is proud to put forward those initiatives and work with partners to make them happen.

Transportation is key to a brighter future

- In addressing #ClimateChange
- To reduce inequalities
- For inclusive sustainable growth

and it brings us together

I’m very honoured to be a part of this

See you on the other side!

Last month, I had the privilege, one last time, to represent Canada on #OpenGovernment at the @OECD

We discussed ways to strengthen #democracy, measures to safeguard healthy civic space, and Brazil and Canada presented a scan of their open government program
(Thread 1/10)

As for me?

Well, I’m very excited to announce that I’ve become Director General, International Relations and Trade Policy at @Transport_gc

You might wonder what is my purpose and intent in moving from open data, trust and democracy to… #Transportation?

At #GCData2022 #CDO @StephenDBurt :

“On culture of sharing, for #data and #tech, it comes down to use case.

A use case that speaks to operational or mission need is where you start to find people mobilizing and changing the way they’re doing things.”

#DataSharing #OpenData

[Melanie Robert @MelRobrt]

From @ISED_CA @FBlodo :

“With the quantity of #data, it means we can’t be effective without working outside our own wall.

We need to be thinking about who else is out there who can have insight so that we stay relevant in our advice.”

Chief statistician Anil Arora of @StatCan_eng :

“To reap the value of #data and solve problems, we must ALL pay attention to the unsexy things, such as :

#Standards
#Metadata
Anonymized data
De-identified data,
etc.

Define them, implement them
