Hello everyone,

 

An announcement today about Linked Parliamentary Data:

 

Canadian Hansard Dataset (1901-present [June 2016]) – in English only: http://www.lipad.ca/

 

“In 2013, a group of political scientists, computer scientists, and historians teamed up at the University of Toronto to solve this problem. With support from the SSHRC, the NSERC, the Digging into Data initiative, the Library of Parliament, Library and Archives Canada, Canadiana.org, and Michael Mulley at openparliament.ca, a key output of this collaboration is the first machine-readable and fully searchable historical Hansard. We have linked to these data to various biographical properties of parliamentarians, including their party and gender. This corpus underpins the search interface of this website.”

Canadian’s overwhelming response enables ‘best ever’ Census in 2016: http://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/about/smr09/smr09_069?twt=E-TYC-RR-02

 

Thanks,

Michelle

The title is 'Linked Parliamentary Data', but for linked data[1] I would have expected an rdf download or SPARQL end point. Will these be made available?

 Or is this not linked data? If it is not then the title is misleading.
