Notes on this record

  • No Gatineau or ID Gatineau "top employers" list with headcounts was found. Headcounts here come from each employer's own page; scopes are stated per row (the CISSS and school service centres count their whole territory).
  • The federal government is Gatineau's largest employer by far, but TBS publishes federal headcounts only for the whole National Capital Region (Ottawa and Gatineau together). Departments listed are those whose own contact page places their headquarters in Gatineau; others with Gatineau head offices (ESDC, CIPO, Elections Canada, CRTC, Transportation Safety Board, Official Languages Commissioner) were not added: their contact pages 404'd on the paths tried, or crtc.gc.ca robots.txt names ClaudeBot (Disallow), tsb.gc.ca returned 403, elections.ca returned 500, clo-ocol.gc.ca did not connect.
  • Blocked or unreachable: cisss-outaouais.gouv.qc.ca home and /carrieres pages serve a Radware "Verifying your browser" challenge (the agrément PDF was readable); santequebec.ca returned 403; brigil.com returned 403 (challenge); foko.io (Gatineau retail-software startup Foko) does not resolve in DNS; obj.ca robots.txt names ClaudeBot (Disallow), so Ottawa Business Journal leads on Gatineau tech funding (Foko, VanillaSoft, Crypto4A) could not be read.
  • Left out: Crypto4A and Enurgen (their own sites place them in Ottawa, not Gatineau); 1VALET (site is a JS shell, location not confirmable).
