Selection, dates, and corrections
How the directory is built
Every record names its source, source date when available, last check, next review date, claim class, and generalized map point.
Sources decide what can be stated
Government pages support the federal records. Operator pages support named commercial facilities, campuses, cloud regions, and projects. Operator statements are labelled provider-claimed unless another registered source independently confirms the same field.
Peering databases, map listings, rankings, copied directories, and old website copy are not used as the foundation for a published facility record.
The map shows a locality
Each facility marker uses a named point from the official Canadian Geographical Names Database. The point helps readers find the stated city or locality without publishing a facility address or implying parcel-level accuracy.
Dates stay visible
The directory records when a source was retrieved, when the claim was last checked, and when another review is due. A past review date changes the displayed claim class to stale. It does not imply that the facility closed.
The change ledger retains additions, state changes, corrections, and suppressions instead of quietly replacing the history.
Corrections need a specific claim
A correction should identify the record, the field in question, the proposed replacement, and a source that supports the change. Unsupported or security-sensitive detail can be suppressed while it is checked.
