Municipalities in Canada are lagging in the implementation of FTTH principally due to the lack of municipal power corporations which are leading the way in the USA. Municipalities in Canada are stuck waiting while the CRTC debates whether to pull the plug on wholesale of outmoded means of communications (i.e. DSL and Cable Modem).
The public consultation period ended on July 13 2010, at which time this website was closed to additional comments and submissions. News and updates on progress towards Canada’s first digital economy strategy will be posted in our Newsroom, and in other prominent locations on the site, as they become available.
Between May 10 and July 13, more than 2010 Canadian individuals and organizations registered to share their ideas and submissions. You can read their contributions — and the comments from other users — in the Submissions Area and the Idea Forum.
