Description:
In this paper, Marian Bredin discusses ways in which the digital divide between FN people and other Canadians (many of which live in the areas and communities digital networks were designed to serve) can be bridged.

Her paper is organized into 3 sections:

1. i.        Critical tools for thinking about the digital divide
2. ii.      Current Canadian debates on access
3. iii.    Successful Native initiatives in bridging the divide
