Technology failures
Is anyone going to document and update and connect this article to the significant breaking news of their failures to supply a working solution for obamacare? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.31.31.109 (talk) 04:13, 23 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Under the terms of the six-year “alternative financing and procurement” contract, CGI — not taxpayers — will be on the hook for the $10 million to $15 million spent on the project. That’s because the company, which launched its work in August 2010, has apparently failed to meet deadlines imposed by eHealth and set out in the agreement. A separate diabetes registry, which was supposed to be up and running on June 30, 2011, is no longer needed because 9,000 Ontario doctors are already using eHealth’s EMR 4.1 system. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.84.235.35 (talk) 12:28, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I think CGI or a subsidiary may have been the company who ran the electronic voting for the New Democratic Party leadership convention in Montreal, which had a major system failure on the final ballot, but I`m not certain about that.

We gotta watch out for shills and be doubly careful about what is being reported in the news. The NPR piece is odd, it reported a very significant and juicy bit that CGI Group had its contract with the Province of Ontario government terminated because it failed to deliver on their health project. 198.84.235.35 (talk) 18:14, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
