 The Global Liberty Internet Campaign (GILC) will sponsor
 "The Public Voice in the Development of Internet Policy" in
 Ottawa, Canada on Wednesday, October 7.  The meeting is
 scheduled to coincide with the Ministerial meeting of the
 Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD)

 The Public Voice conference is a public meeting on the role
 of the citizen in the development of the information
 society.  The meeting will hear from consumer groups, human
 rights organizations and civil liberties advocates on such
 issues as privacy, access, consumer protection and human
 rights in the 21st century.
 
 John Manley, the Canadian Minister of Industry will be the
 opening speaker. Mr. Manley will be followed by David
 Johnston, the former Chair of the Canadian Information
 Highway Advisory Council and former Provost of McGill
 University.  Stephen Lau, the Privacy Commissioner for
 Personal Data in Hong Kong, will address the group in the
 afternoon.  Experts from Belgium, Canada, Norway, Britain,
 Germany, Austria, Australia, and the United States will
 discuss a range of important issues affecting consumers and
 citizens in the on-line world.
 
 The GILC meeting is being organized by EPIC in cooperation
 with Federation Nationale des Associations de Consommateurs
 du Quebec (Montreal), the Public Interest Advocacy Center
 (Ottawa), and Electronic Frontiers Canada.
