The Joint Councils remain committed to accelerating the work to deliver trusted digital identity for Canadians. Citizens want quick, convenient access to online programs and services from both public and private sectors and to be assured that their personal information will be collected, used and disclosed in accordance not only with the principles of privacy by design, but also in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Digital trust is crucial to transforming government services. Digital Trust and Credentials provides leadership and direction to the Jurisdictional Experts on Digital Identity (JEDI) and the DTC Program Executive Steering Committee.
