Hello Ushnish, I can try to take your question regarding more information on
the Canada.ca  website. I'll put in a couple of requests internally and see
if anyone bites. (smile)

Hi
Anyone know of a site curating comprehensive data on COVID 19 for all of
Canada?
The Health Canada site only reports test from federal labs, does not include
test numbers from provincial labs
https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/diseases/coronavirus-disease
-covid-19.html
Is it possible within privacy laws, to have the data be disaggregated not
only by age but also by disability and/or chronic illness?

For Toronto, I went to a Toronto Police Service meeting on disability
policies a few months ago., and apparently there is a voluntary opt in list
for individuals with disabilities informing Toronto Police Services, in case
there are emergencies at the particular address they are living at.
It would be nice to know if the police or any of the city services are
checking in on individuals with mobility issues, ensuring they have
groceries and other necessities.
