The CAP was indeed an important program for digital inclusion in Canada. I wrote about it back in 2007 (chapter 3, co-authored with Christine Desloges, "A experiência canadense de governo on-line e programas de inclusão digital" pp 58-86 in e-Desenvolvimento no Brasil e no Mundo: São Caetano do Sul, SP: Yendis, 2007). Based on what Glenn says here, I would certainly support the application. Is there a document being circulated? Best, Peter ---- Peter T.

We recently received the Manitoba E Association application to become a NARALO ALS.
Manitoba E Association has its roots in the CAP program and Telecommunities Canada which many of our NARALO members have their origins Despite the federal government cutbacks to this program the organization continues to be active and a viable group outreaching especially to the First Nations through their Summer Internship program. They are an active organization with good addition to the NARALO family of ALS's Given our outreach efforts to Canada and the US to the first nations I believe their active involvement will be a real asset to building a stronger RALO.
I endorse this application.
