The Ministry of Citizens’ Services is a progressive and innovative organization that leads the delivery of high-speed connectivity throughout the province and supports government’s public sector data security and privacy practices to ensure that British Columbians’ personal information is safeguarded. The ministry strives to support excellent service to the public service and citizens of British Columbia as the digital face of government, managing the Province’s real estate assets, technology systems and equipment and by leveraging procurement to increase business opportunities.
