I’m excited to announce the launch of CanShield Digital: helping organizations buy Canadian in the digital landscape.

I don’t want to just keep posting about the importance of data sovereignty, I want to do something about it. So I am. I am ready to partner with organizations to strategise about real solutions which keep your data and your money in Canada. My career has prepared me for this moment. I’ve been using free and open source alternatives since the 90’s. I know how to avoid tech giants and vendor lock-in.

I’m used to consulting with a wide range of teams and stakeholders. From planning and executing system migrations, to self-hosted tooling, or Scaling up for gov agencies, I have gained a lot of experience in my career.

So, I really want to hear from you! Who is ready to talk about a change in their organization? Who just wants to continue sending money to the US tech economy?

“Not so fast! We can’t just cut off all our US tech” I hear ya. Strategy is important here. Through an inclusive team process, we can find what is the best first thing to focus on in your business. No one organization is going to solve Canada’s digital sovereignty challenges, but every little bit helps. Let’s work together and make some steps in the right direction.

Do you know someone who would be interested in our tech services? Let’s connect!
