#Canada is preparing a public consultation on a framework for digital identity

In August, the Canadian government unveiled Digital Ambition 2022.

This vision was described as “a clear, long-term strategic goal for the Government to promote digital service delivery, cyber security, talent recruiting, and privacy.”

The new plan will replace the government’s “Digital Operations Strategic Plan” for 2021-2024.

One fundamental pillar of the ‘Ambition’ is digital identification, with a focus on the need for the government to provide quick, simple means to confirm ID claims.

A reminder Canada is one of the eight countries that formed a working group for digital ID in 2020.

The government has yet to provide details on when its public consultation on digital ID might run.
