INAC launches a new web site, VTAC - "Virtual Tour of Aboriginal Canada"
At INAC's Connecting Aboriginal Canadians workshop in Ottawa this week, INAC officials used this opportunity to launch another web site called a "Virtual Tour of Aboriginal Canada". Aboriginal communities across the country need to now check to make sure their community's web site is properly linked (and updated) on INAC's web site.
The web site can be found at http://www.aboriginalcanada.gc.ca/abdt/apps/VTAC.nsf/splash.html
It is introduced as EXPLORE ABORIGINAL CANADA

Ever wonder who Aboriginal people really are, where they live, how they live, etc.?
Find out by visiting Aboriginal communities on line. Better yet come and visit us and you'll have an experience of a lifetime.
Indians, Metis & Inuit peoples with unique heritages, languages, cultural practices & spiritual beliefs.
Interestingly enough, this web site and all these conferences are funded from the corporate side of INAC. No new INAC funding programs to support First Nations in building and maintaining broadband infrastructure or for producing and maintaining their own community web sites and developing their own local capacity to do business online are being announced.
