The National Post Opinion page has an excellent article about the Ontario Government’s failure to properly archive digital material. This is not a problem unique to Ontario. The article mentions the Ontario Auditor-General’s Report (Ch. 3 pg. 44 & 45) that was critical of the Ontario’s progress with this issue.
This is an important issue as the Auditor-General’s reports states, Ontario is missing 20 years of archived records due the failure to address the technical issues surrounding archiving these records.
