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.”

Page 12: Digital Barnsley

“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.”

Mayor Bloomberg 17 May, 2011
