The changing stance of the Canadian government in an age of globalization and information

This article looks at policy options taken by the Canadian government in an age of globalization and information. A first part explores federal government initiatives pertaining to Canada's preparedness for the information society. A second part assesses some provincial government policy options, with a separate section paying special attention to the Quebec government's intentions, which include support for the production and online dissemination of content and services in the French language (undoubtedly to be understood as an element of the Quebec government's sovereigntist project). © 2000, SAGE PUBLICATIONS.
