Because of the large amount of Data, I would suggest you use a "Visual" index and browsing tool.
It could be like the Visual Thesaurous. Grouping and links and drill-down sub-categories could then be displayed. Of course individual documents would still be accessible by an html link.

Plus...Having an abstract model of the information that is available, organized by subject area would make it much easier to understand the scope of the data available, and the degree of detai. Furthermore, having access to a catalog that describes the data in terms of its sources, typical uses and characteristics would make it much easier to understand the features of what is available.

Perhaps have one website that would regroup and link everything.

Plus...In order to make it easier to find, compare and use government agencies data online, datasets should be made available by all financial data from federal departments, municipal and provincial governments in a single standard XML format with a shared taxonomy. This will allow cross agency comparisons. I would highly recommend the use of the open data financial standard known as XBRL (xbrl.org)

In the software industry, bug tracking is commonly used to keep a track on bugs in your software. I can imagine a similar web interface for government data.
You would be able search, watch/follow, create, comment on issues (given you have the privilege).
