WEBCAST TODAY: Spectrum and Indigenous Connectivity: Intervening in ISED Consultation

Today Friday Oct 1 2021 at 11:00 EDT (15:00 UTC) ISOC.LIVE will webcast a recording of the Internet Society Sep 21 webinar to discuss the importance of spectrum for enabling broadband Internet service in Indigenous communities across Canada. Ensuring access to adequate spectrum provides opportunities for underserved communities to connect themselves with reliable, affordable Internet that is provided by the current market.

In August, Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) initiated a consultation on a new supplementary licensing process (Access Licensing framework) for unused spectrum to support innovation and the availability of rural services. If implemented correctly, this process can be a major benefit for Indigenous connectivity efforts across Canada.

This webinar provided the background needed to engage in ISED’s consultation process, which closes on October 12, focusing on the importance of spectrum for Indigenous communities, the current state of spectrum policy in Canada, promising practices for spectrum allocation in the US, and navigating the consultation process.
