While it's not directly Ubuntu-related, this Saturday, 23 February 2013,
is International OpenDataDay.  There are hackathon events planned across
Canada: http://wiki.opendataday.org/2013/City_Events#Canada 

Like the Ubuntu Global Jam, programming skills not necessarily required;
designers are needed, librarians to organize data, mathematicians to do
statistics, artists to make infographics, &c.

Apparently International OpenDataDay was started by a Canadian, David
Eaves.  Yay, Canada!
