<p>I am so sorry to say that Brian Beaton has died. Brian was an active member and supporter of TC (Telecommunities Canada) right into early this year. I will miss his acute insight and perspectives grounded in the community contexts he knew so well. He was
a remarkable man who had a vision of community-owned infrastructure from early days. I always wanted to be a fly on the wall in the National Broadband Taskforce discussions. He came out of that with some serious telco/gov't contributions to First Nations owned
communications networks -- back in the late 1990s.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Here are a couple of articles about his life.<o:p></o:p></p>
