Edmonton, Alberta
Government records, registries and prices are public, but hard to use. Each site below takes one of them and gives every record its own plain page: who got a grant, what an inspection found, whether a name is already a trademark.

From orbit
Ten live sites. Seven of them run on the government's own records.
Parliament
Find your MP by postal code: their email and phone, every recorded vote, who lobbies them, what their office spends, and a letter you can send in two minutes. Free, with an open API.
Grants
Every federal grant and contribution program, the organizations it funded, and how much, by program, industry, province, city and riding. Plus the programs taking applications now.
Contracts
Who sells what to the federal and Alberta governments, and for how much: every vendor, department and category, with open federal tenders and who won the last ones.
Health products
Is it approved in Canada? Any drug, natural health product or medical device Health Canada has licensed: its licence number, status, company, ingredients, approvals and recalls.
Continuing care
What inspections found at every continuing care home and supportive living accommodation in Alberta, one page per home, with a finder by postal code or town.
Trademarks
Is a name already a trademark in Canada? Every live mark on the register, found by spelling, by sound and by the words inside longer marks, with its owner, classes and status in plain words.
Property
Edmonton and Calgary neighbourhoods from each city's own open data: assessed values and their trend, building permits, active businesses, and a check of one address against similar properties nearby.
Software and privacy
Does your software keep data in Canada? Each product is rated on where data is stored, where it is processed, and who owns the company that holds it. Every claim links the vendor's own page and the date it was checked.
eBay prices
Every eBay listing for the PC parts, Switch and PS5 games and watches people flip, priced in Canadian dollars with shipping, and a record of what went fast.
Groceries
Grocery prices tracked across Canadian stores, to catch fake sales and shrinkflation with real price history.
Figures from each site on October 15, 2026. Most of them refresh from their sources on a schedule, so the live numbers move.
Every MP, program, vendor, care home and trademark gets its own page with a plain address, so a search for it lands on the answer.
The government-data sites name their source and its date next to the figures, so anyone can check them.
No account and no paywall to look something up. The data is public; reading it should be too.
I'm Curtis Hall. I live in Edmonton. I look for data that's public but hard to use, build the site that makes it easy, and keep it current.
