Additional Notes
- All organizations in the study have at least one office in Ontario.
- Data compiled between October 3rd, 2019 and October 28th, 2019.
- In compiling the organizations, auditors made sure no city was represented with more than 20 results.
- Via the random process, only two (2) of tbk’s clients was found in the results.
- Whatcms.org was used to tabulate results. If no CMS was found, a manual audit occurred.
- In cases where more than one CMS was found using Whatcms.org, we used the CMS that was referenced on the highest number of pages (in these cases, the most popular CMS listed took precedence over an “Unknown” result)
