CRTC seeking feedback to improve telecommunications in “Far North”

Spencer Hall – June 8, 2022

FORT NELSON, B.C. – The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) is launching the second phase of public consultation on the actions it should take to improve telecommunications services in remote northern areas.

“Geography has played a significant role in the telecommunications options available to consumers in Canada. We need to collaborate with people living and working in the Far North to ensure they have a similar level of service as the South,” said CRTC Chairperson and CEO Ian Scott.
