Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Canada. Dept. of Communications. International Telecommunications Branch : The International Telecommunications Branch (DGTI) was responsible for coordinating the Department of Communication's international commitments and activities. The branch was mandated by the Government Organization Act, 1969 to "take such action as may be necessary to secure, by international regulation or otherwise, the rights of Canada in communications matters". The branch reported to the Operations Sector (later the Policy Sector).

Prior to 1969, this role was largely the responsibility of the Telecommunications and Electronics Branch of the Department of Transport. The branch was reimagined as the International Relations Branch in 1981 after cultural liaison responsibilities were added to the department's portfolio.

Canada. Dept. of Communications. International Relations Branch : The International Relations Branch (DGIR) was established in the early 1980s as a merging of the department's international telecommunications activities with their recently-acquired cultural initiatives responsibilities. It was responsible for ensuring that significant international developments were taken into account in the formulation of national telecommunications and cultural policies, and for the effectiveness of Canada's participation and position in all bilateral and multilateral negotiations and activities affecting Canadian communications and cultural interests.

The structure of the branch varied, though generally consisted of a Special Adviser on International Informatics and directorates representing the following activities: telecommunications, cultural liaison, international arrangements, international development, and international radio conference/CCI affairs.

In 1988-89, the branch was succeeded by the Summits and Development Sector.
