Why Données Québec MCP?
Quebec publishes thousands of open datasets: crime, trees, transit, heritage, air quality. The material is rich, but reaching it means manually browsing several portals, understanding the structure of each resource and writing queries by hand.
Données Québec MCP removes that friction. The server exposes 16 tools through the Model Context Protocol: an AI agent can then search a dataset, explore its structure and run a SQL query, in a single conversation. MIT licensed, in Python.
