Industry committee  Perhaps I can help. As the chair mentioned earlier, the act actually applies to commercial unsolicited e-mails that are applied. I think the e-mails you're talking about are of a non-commercial nature so they would not be captured by this act to begin with. If the organization

Industry committee  The non-business relationship is in fact if they wanted to try to solicit or do commercial activity.

Industry committee  Yes, briefly. In spite of this evidence, in order to ensure that Canadians have confidence in the list, we have developed a process with the list operator--this will improve on the existing measures--to verify the identity of all individuals or telemarketers before they are allo

Industry committee  Perhaps I could just add a couple of points to what the chair has mentioned. First of all, we completed a manual review of all parties who downloaded the list.

Canadian Heritage committee  We had a major proceeding in 2009 on net neutrality. We called it the Internet traffic management practices framework. We set up a framework, actually, and it's going to be complaint-driven. If we get a complaint in from an ISP, or from a Canadian who's concerned about traffic ma

Canadian Heritage committee  As we mentioned in our opening comments, all complaints that we've received to date have been resolvable very easily. Most of them have been related to disclosure requirements. We want to make sure that if any ITMPs are used by ISPs, they're prominently displayed on the website,

John Traversy

Canadian Heritage committee  As I was saying, to date we've relied really on the marketplace to extend broadband as far as possible. In addition to that there have been a number of targeted subsidy programs introduced by both the provinces, the federal government, and in some cases municipalities, to try to

Canadian Heritage committee  Well, the first point of contact is with your service providers to get a full understanding of what their point of view is. And of course, yes....
