Household Internet Use Survey, 1998 [Canada] Revised

The Household Internet Use Survey is being conducted by Statistics Canada on behalf of Industry Canada. The Household Internet Use Survey is a voluntary survey. It will provide information on the use of computers for communication purposes, and households' access and use of the Internet from home. The objective of this survey is to measure the demand for telecommunications services by Canadian households. To assess the demand, we measure the frequency and intensity of use of what is commonly referred to as \"the information highway\" among other things. This was done by asking questions relating to the accessibility of the Internet to Canadian households both at home, the workplace and a number of other locations. The information collected will be used to used to update and expand upon previous studies done by Statistics Canada on the topic of the Information Highway.
