DataVisualize life expectancies across Canada.
DataThe Price Sentinel Network is a youth-led civic data project focused on building an interactive grocery affordability map for Metro Vancouver families. With BC's food insecurity rate at 24.4% and grocery costs rising 27% over five years, the project brings together volunteers to research, analyze, and present data that helps identify where households can save on essential groceries—and make that information publicly accessible.
DataStudents will compile and analyze a structured dataset of political parties across three levels of government in Canada (federal, provincial/territorial, and municipal, where applicable), and develop visualizations that help demystify Canada's multi-level political system for non-expert audiences.
DataOnly ~3,500 Canadian communities are incorporated towns or cities. The other ~6,500 are census-recognized localities - places without city halls, but with real people, needs, and stories. Statistics Canada tracks them so everyone counts. Join GLOCAL to help demystify how Canada is governed, how open data really works, and to build a historic civic database that future researchers, policymakers, and youth will use. Help GLOCAL build the Canadian Localities Database, where you will be translating abstract census geography into human- understandable civic maps, making invisible communities visible, helping the youth understand who governs them and how and creating reusable infrastructure for education, policy & community planning.
