11. Canada’s ‘Digital Nation’
“We want to make Canada the first digital nation
in the world. This involves not just supporting
high-tech sectors, but understanding how digital
media is changing the way we communicate, do
business and access news and entertainment.”
“Infrastructure investments should not be
directed to 20th Century things like roads and
bridges. We’ll be able to fund those things in the
future from health cost savings.”
12. We want New York City to be the nation s
premier digital City – in how local government
interacts with New Yorkers, in how New Yorkers
have access to and capitalize on new
technologies, and in how our tech and digital
media sectors evolve, grow businesses and create
jobs. The Road Map for the Digital City will help us
get there.
