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 skills they need to use it effectively. With the combined efforts of the federal, provincial and territorial governments, community groups, social agencies libraries, schools, volunteer groups and business community, CAP helps Canadians, wherever they live, take advantage of emerging opportunities in the new global knowledge-based economy. Under CAP, public locations like schools, libraries and community centres act as "on-ramps" to the Information Highway, and provide computer support and training. CAP is the key component of the Government of Canada's Connecting Canadians initiative, whose goal is to make Canada the most connected nation in the world.

Le Programme d'accès communautaire (PAC), administré par Industrie Canada, a été conçu par le gouvernement fédéral pour fournir aux Canadiens un accès public à Internet à prix abordable, et pour leur enseigner comment l'utiliser efficacement. De concert avec les gouvernements provinciaux et territoriaux, les groupes communautaires, les organismes sociaux, les bibliothèques, les écoles, les groupes de bénévoles et les milieux d'affaires, le PAC aide les Canadiens à tirer parti des débouchés qu'offre la nouvelle économie mondiale du savoir. En vertu du PAC, les lieux publics comme les écoles, les bibliothèques et les centres communautaires servent de «rampes d'accès» à l'autoroute de l'information et fournissent un soutien technique ainsi que de la formation. Le PAC constitue la pierre angulaire de l'initiative fédérale «Un Canada branché» qui vise à faire du Canada le pays le plus branché au monde.
