While it would have been great to have seen even more pro-OA and pro-open-data responses, and, as you point out, this may have happened given more time, there were some responses that are very much pro-OA pro-open data. For example, the Canadian Library Association response says, in response to whether to support the strategies: Yes. In particular, we would like to applaud and support: "3.3 Provide timely and open online access to Canada's public information and publicly funded research information and data." CLA and its members strongly support open access where appropriate, and CLA itself has a broad open access policy. hi Tracey – thank you for posting the link to the responses.
