Abstract
This issue’s GIS Trends section discusses the current efforts underway to close the Geographic Digital Divide in Canada. While the Government of Canada has promised every Canadian will have access to high-speed internet by 2030, the actual availability is highly geographically determined, and mal actors continue efforts to restrict access. GIS companies may promote their use in closing the divide, but do not address systemic issues.
期刊介绍：
This is an index to the ACML Proceedings for conferences held 1967 - 1976, and to the Bulletin (originally Newsletter) from 1968 to the present. The include articles, reports, minutes, news items, and reviews of books, atlases, maps, microforms and software. ACMLA publishes facsimiles of maps of Canadian interest, a number of which have been reproduced on Bulletin covers, and are therefore included in the index.
