The Government Electronic Directory Services (GEDS) provide a directory of the
Public Service of Canada
The Public Service of Canada (known as the Civil Service of Canada prior to 1967) is the civilian workforce of the Government of Canada's departments, agencies, and other public bodies.
While the Government of Canada has employed civil servants ...
for all regions across Canada. It is managed by
Shared Services Canada.
The
Canadian government's Information Technology Services Branch developed GEDS to integrate two directory services that it manages (the Government of Canada telephone directories and the Email Address Exchange Service (EMAX)).
Individual federal departments are responsible for maintaining information in GEDS (e.g. staff changes).
Users can search for federal employees by surname, given name, telephone number, title, role, or organization. It is also a useful system to learn the hierarchical structure of organizations within the Canadian public service.
