<div>Thanks for the follow up Marita .. As I mentioned all the
submissions are available online at the CRTC site (initial
intervention – June 25; responses and comments – August 25) at <a

<div>The next step is for the CRTC to review the replies &
suggested questions to see if they need more info from the
parties participating in this process. Once that step is done
then they will put out a date when the final submissions are
due. The final submissions can contain additional support
statements for a position so I would think a letter from TC
endorsing the FMCC position would be useful in the Final
Submission (it can only be a max of 15 pages so if space permits
[smiles]) .. But we can post it on the web site and reference it
as a link and in the body of our final submission.</div>

<p>Hello folks. At today's teleconference Brian Beaton
mentioned that the First Mile Connectivity Consortium was
actively engaged in discussions regarding the new $750M
CRTC fund to support rural and remote connectivity.
Apparently there is still time to support FMCC's
intervention which I have linked below. <br>

<p><font face="Times New Roman,Times,serif">Unless there are
objections, perhaps Brian could let us know how we can
support this at this stage of the game.</font><br>

<p> I really like Appendix 2 (p.22) highlighting
non-profits' consensus broadband fund design principles
signed by a number of public interest organizations.</p>
