The Nunavut Broadband Task Force members created the Nunavut Broadband Development Corporation (NBDC), a not-for-profit corporation representing members of the public. With initial start-up funds from Industry Canada, Department of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada, and contributions in kind from various Nunavut-based organizations, NBDC pulled together a 600 page business plan detailing every aspect of a sustainable network. The vision was to initially fund the building of the network through government and industry, and then sustain it through users purchasing affordable services from the network.
