"This report, prepared in compliance with contract No. 0SU78-00218 of the Ministry of Supply and Services for the Ministry of Communications: Ottawa, deals with the following five objectives. 1. Identify the types and establish the characteristics of public services which could be provided with the aid of telecommunications satellites. 2. Identify, analyze and criticize existing policies and institutional structures which affect the introduction of such services. 3. Examine in broad terms the economics of satellite delivered public services and attempt to identify those services which appear to have the highest value commensurate with their roots. 4. Identify plausible plans of action and working models (projections) which could be the basis for DOC initiatives to improve the level of satellite-based public services available to Canadians, concentrating on two priority services: education and health. 5. Establish future demand estimates (traffic) and associated costs for providing this level of service"--Executive Summary.
