Provincial, federal governments leaning on AI to cut red tape
The federal government and several provincial governments in Canada are using artificial intelligence to identify outdated and complicated regulations to reduce red tape and improve productivity.
Treasury Board President Shafqat Ali and provincial and territorial ministers met in Toronto to discuss cutting outdated regulations to reduce costs and enhance productivity.
Several provinces are exploring AI to streamline applications, approvals, internal processes, and service delivery, according to Mohammad Kamal, spokesperson for Ali's office.
The federal government uses BizPal, an AI platform that translates complex legal and regulatory language into plain language summaries, while Ontario uses AI to scan laws and forms for outdated rules.
