Community Access Program (CAP)
The Community Access Program (CAP) is a Government of Canada initiative, administered by Industry Canada that aims to provide Canadians with affordable public access to the Internet and the skills they need to use it effectively.
It is hoped that CAP sites will increasingly join together in networking opportunities enabling them to pool resources and form networks to be able to offer even more to their communities.
Elgin CFDC is the Network Host for 15 CAP sites in Elgin County and is the administrative head of the network.
