<p>Government of Canada web pages must be easily identifiable as part of Canada.ca. Each page must convey the overall brand and feel of Canada.ca, and provide a consistent experience for site visitors. </p>
<p>These mandatory elements were designed to reflect the trusted digital brand of the Government of Canada: modern, open, helpful and credible.</p>

</section>
<h2 id="domain">The Canada.ca domain</h2>
<p>Use the Canada.ca domain for all Government of Canada web pages:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/common-design-patterns/canada-dot-ca.html">Canada.ca domain</a></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="styles">Styles</h2>
<p>Apply the following style elements:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/styles/typography.html">Typography</a></li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/styles/colours.html">Colours</a></li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/styles/layouts.html">Layouts</a></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="header-footer">Header and footer</h2>
<p>Each page from the Government of Canada shares a common header and footer. That is, the upper and lower parts of a page must look the same from page to page.</p>
<p>Get the detailed requirements:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/common-design-patterns/global-header.html">Global header</a></li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/common-design-patterns/site-footer.html">Global footer</a></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="inst_home">Institutional landing page</h2>
<p>All Government of Canada organizations and institutions must use this template as the single home page for their institution.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/mandatory-templates/institutional-profile-pages.html">Institutional landing page template</a></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="mandatory">Other mandatory templates</h2>
<p>Specific Canada.ca page types use mandatory templates. Consistency in these page types helps people find and accomplish tasks. </p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/mandatory-templates/theme-topic.html">Theme page</a>: top-level page for each Canada.ca theme, to be used only by theme lead institution</li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/mandatory-templates/theme-topic.html">Topic page</a>: mandatory for the first 2 levels of topics in the Canada.ca topic tree, optional for lower-level topics</li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/mandatory-templates/audience-pages.html">Government-wide audience page</a>: to be used only by the institutions managing the government-wide audiences</li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/mandatory-templates/ministerial-profile-pages.html">Ministerial profile</a>: to be used for ministers and parliamentary secretaries (also used with modification for heads of quasi-judicial arm’s-length institutions)</li>
<li><a href="https://design.canada.ca/mandatory-templates/news-pages.html#product">News products</a>: common layouts for news products such as releases, backgrounders, advisories and speeches</li>
</ul>
<h3 id="gc-wide">Government-wide templates</h3>
