In the spring of 2001, Prime Minister Jean Chretien announced in the Throne Speech that the Government of Canada will work towards having high-speed Internet available in every community in Canada.

This initiative has been given to Industry Canada under Minister Brian Tobin who is to research the viability and costs of ensuring that every community in Canada has access to high-speed Internet and Broadband Technology.

We, the Atlantic Policy Congress of First Nation Chiefs Secretariat Inc. want to ensure that the Mi'kmaq, Maliseet and Passamaquoddy communities throughout Atlantic Canada do not get left out of this project.

The APC will be hosting a series of five(5) Round-Table discussions in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, which include specialized people in our communities, to develop a strategy on bringing the Mi'kmaq, Maliseet and Passamaquoddy communities On-Line.

As part of this process, we will be developing a network of Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal people who will ensure that high-speed Internet will also be available to our communities as well as the Non-Aboriginal Communities.

We need your help in naming this network, as well as designing a logo that will identify this network. All rules of the contest are listed below and we look forward to your help with this important project.

Thank-you, Welalin, Woliwon,
Atlantic Policy Congress of First Nation Chiefs
