CIRA
is asking for input to the following survey. It is primarily to
inform decisions around the community improvement program. I
have responded on behalf of Telecommunities Canada. But I would
encourage as many of you as possible to take the 1/2 (maybe a
bit more) hour to give your input either on behalf of your
organization or as an individual. You all have perspectives that
are unique in this area. And if you don't share them, they won't
be on the table. <br>
</font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">And don't be afraid to
think outside of the categories provided. Most of what I wanted
to say ended up in the text boxes -- not in rating one thing
over another.</font></p><p><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Marita</font><br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning/afternoon, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m writing to you today on behalf of the
Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA) to ask for
your participation in an online survey that that we are
conducting about the state of Canada’s internet. I believe
your organization is a good fit to lend your voice to these
issues<i>. </i>This qualitative survey is linked below, and
focuses on digital literacy, internet infrastructure, access
and funding. We want to learn about progress and challenges in
these areas and are reaching out to experts like you to help
us tell this story. <br>
<br>

take the survey</span></a><span style="font-size:14pt;color:black">.</span></p>
<h1><span style="color:#c00000">About this survey and the
results</span></h1>
<p class="MsoNormal">This qualitative survey can take up to 25
minutes to complete, though there are sections you may wish to
skip. The survey will remain open until February 2, 2018.
Participants can remain anonymous or may choose to
self-identify at the end of the survey. We plan to produce a
public report on our findings in June. All participants who
self-identify will receive an advanced copy of the report and
additional details about the survey results. Our hope is that
our report will garner the attention of the Canadian public,
media and policy makers and enhance a national discussion on
issues related to Canada’s internet.</p>
