Broadband Fund – Third call for applications – Changes to procedure

Revised deadline for submission of interventions: 15 June 2023 at 17:00, Pacific Standard Time

On 8 May 2023, the Government of Nunavut requested that the Commission extend the deadline for the submission of applications for the third call of the Broadband Fund (the deadline for the submission of applications) by one month. The Government of Nunavut requested additional time to ensure that its proposed submission meets all the specific requirements of the Broadband Fund and that it presents a compelling argument for funding.
The Commission considers that extending the deadline for the submission of applications would provide potential applicants with sufficient time to effectively participate in the public hearing initiated by Telecom Notice of Consultation 2022-147 and submit applications in response to the third call for applications. Accordingly, the Commission hereby revises the deadline for the submission of applications, as set out in Telecom Notice of Consultation 2022-325-1, from 16 May 2023 to 15 June 2023 at 17:00, Pacific Standard Time.
