I noticed the gap - all levels of government here in Canada focus on touristy-websites, but getting information for residents is difficult to non-existent. Take a look at www.bureaucrat.ca which provides RSS feeds of government jobs in Canada; "Don't fight the power, be the power"! Another is www.govtender.ca which provides RSS feeds of government tenders, RFPs and contracts. Other sites of mine that fill this void? www.copjobs.ca focuses on police jobs in Canada, www.govsurplus.ca focuses on government surplus in Canada, www.collegework.ca focuses on community college jobs in Canada...and more to come. If they don't, I do! Exactly what I do. I noticed the gap – all levels of government here in Canada focus on touristy-websites, but getting information for residents is difficult to non-existent.
