OCTOBER 8, 1998 ACTION ALERT OECD Ministerial Conference

Outside the Chateau Laurier Ottawa, Ontario
WHOSE GLOBAL AGENDA?
The fate of 6 billion lies in the hands of 29
Come join us for creative street theatre to make a highly visible
point about whose agenda this conference serves and what it
means for the rest of us.
Call 236-4103 or email ron@tao.ca for more information and to get INVOLVED.
More information to follow.
The OECD states in their conference outline that: "global electronic
commerce has far-reaching implications for the nature of work,
daily life and the role of governments. However, if society as a
whole is to fully benefit from the opportunities offered by electronic
commerce, business, citizens and countries will need common
frameworks to guide it s innovation and growth".
As we know, the only ones that will control this vital piece of global
relations (ie. Internet) will yet again be investors/ corporations!
