The Canadian Public Data Rescue Initiative was founded in 2025 by members of the Canadian Data Community to help preserve government data at risk. Our mandate is to ensure that Canadian public data is preserved and made available for the long term, and support international data rescue efforts. 

New: we have just launched our public data repository, hosted on Borealis!
