In Canada, CIRA has launched a pan-Canadian tour to find out what the Internet means to Canadians at http://onewebday.ca.

The One Web Day Tour is hosted by Tour Ambassador, Canadian-born video/film writer and producer Gavin Michael Booth. Together with a production crew, Booth’s team will travel by plane, train and automobile across the country from August 7th to September 8th visiting 12 communities from coast to coast to coast, to interview and shoot video footage of Canadians sharing their online experiences and discussing the value of the Internet. The Ambassador will encourage participants on-site to share their thoughts live and on-camera, posing a series of thought-provoking questions in each community. Scheduled tour visits include various historic and high traffic locations in Whitehorse, Yukon; Vancouver, British Columbia; Edmonton, Alberta; Saskatoon, Saskatchewan; Winnipeg, Manitoba; Toronto, Ontario; Ottawa, Ontario, Montreal, Quebec; Moncton, New Brunswick; Halifax, Nova Scotia; Charlottetown PEI, and St. John’s, Newfoundland.
