Updates
AI Playbook
Work on TfD's AI Playbook for NGOs is ongoing. If you're part of an organisation that's using AI or has experience with these tools and want to advise, please get in touch.
Civic Tech Brampton
TfD team members will be at Civic Tech Brampton next week. If you'd like to join us, you can find details and RSVP at the Civic Tech Brampton Meetup.
Bill C-4 Has Passed
Bill C-4 has passed, and we're reflecting on how we heard about it late, when it was already in the Senate. The bill had been in progress since last June. We want to improve our radar on legislation that matters to our community. If you have insights into staying on top of bills and policy discussions, we'd love to hear from you.
