Broadband or high-capacity Internet is used to send or view large amounts of information including live video and audio via the Internet. This can bring people in different regions closer together--from a doctor in Vancouver and a patient in Tofino, to a grade three class in Corner Brook and a science centre in Halifax. While this would be next to impossible with Internet access, over a regular dial-up phone line broadband provides the support needed to view or participate in these opportunities. 1, record 5, English, - Broadband%3A%20High%2Dcapacity%20Internet%20for%20all%20Canadian%20Communities
