| RE: <nettime> A Letter Re: Canadian Policy Towards An Information Society |
being from canada, i read http://www.tc.ca/newapproach.txt with interest and some curiosity. it was trying to address an over-emphasis on the business side of telecommunications on the part of the Minister of Industry (which I suppose is somewhat expected in a minister of industry). are we to understand, then, that telecommunications policies are under the leadership of the minister of industry? i would have thought that telecommunications policies would not be under the leadership simply of a dept of industry (or whatever) but would be, say, in the same dept as what the cbc is in. is the cbc also reporting to the minister of industry? what sorts of policies are at issue here? regulating/governing what? also, what do you mean by "open networks"? ja http://vispo.com # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: [email protected] and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: [email protected]
