Template Tip: Creating a page title

From Department or organization name

Current status: Open

Opened on Month DD,YYYY and will close to new input on Month DD,YYYY.

(Short plain-language description of consultation goals and expected outcomes. Max 2 sentences. Must be at the appropriate reading level - grade 6-8 for general public, higher for extremely technical consultations.)

Creating the heading for your consultation profile page

The H1 heading should start with a verb phrase oriented to the users. Options include:

  • Share your thoughts (this is the default verb phrase)
  • Share and view ideas
  • Comment on
  • Join the discussion

Add the name of the consultation after the verb phrase. For example:

  • Share your thoughts - Accessible Transportation
  • Share and view ideas - Nutrition North food subsidies
  • Comment on Pyrimethanil, Proposed Maximum Residue Limit PMRL2016-38
  • Comment on proposed revisions - Canadian Transportation Agency General Rules
  • Join the discussion - Open Goverment action plan 2.0

When the consultation closes, the verb phrase should be removed from the heading, and '- Closed consultation' should be added after the consultation name. For example:

  • Accessible Transportation - Closed consultation
  • Nutrition North food subsidies- Closed consultation
  • Pyrimethanil, Proposed Maximum Residue Limit PMRL2016-38 - Closed consultation
  • Canadian Transportation Agency General Rules - Closed consultation
  • Open Goverment action plan 2.0 - Closed consultation
