Canadian organizations with a published AI policy
Every record links to the public source document. Inclusion does not mean a policy is good, and a missing record does not prove an organization lacks governance.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the organizations registry?
- It is a source-linked list of Canadian organizations — schools, libraries, non-profits, health and professional bodies, media outlets, agencies — that have published an AI policy or operational guidance. Every record links to the public source document, which is always the authority. Municipal records live in the separate registry at /municipalities.
- Where do the descriptions come from?
- Each description is written from the public source document and reviewed by a human before it appears here. Descriptions summarise what a document covers and which controls it names. They are never a score, a grade, or an opinion about whether the policy is good. Our approach is documented on /methodology.
- Why do some organizations have no description?
- A small number of records are still being adjudicated — usually because the source was hard to access, the document is an AI strategy rather than a use policy, or the scope was unclear. The organization stays listed with its source link, and the description appears once review is finished.
- What is the difference between a formal policy and operational guidance?
- A formal policy is an approved governing document. Operational guidance is practical direction staff actually follow — newsroom standards, classroom rules, a staff handbook section. Both count as published governance; neither is automatically stronger than the other.
- My organization is not listed. What should I do?
- Submit your policy through the form below. A missing record does not prove an organization lacks governance — it usually means we have not found a public source document yet.
- We do not have an AI policy yet. Where do we start?
- Read a few comparable records here to see what peers actually committed to, then use the Policy Builder in the Policy Studio at /studio to draft your own, and /policy-review to check an existing draft against the same control library.
