Have Your Say on GNWT Websites

The Government of the Northwest (GNWT) is looking for resident feedback on government websites and their usability.

Residents are invited to complete a survey to provide their input. In the survey, they will be asked how they use government websites, what information they are searching for, what information is important to them, and what parts of the websites they feel work well compared to what they feel can be improved.
