Broadband Essential for Community Wellness Organization

Ilisaqsivik is a locally run organization in Clyde River, Nunavut, with a mission to promote community holistic wellness through a variety of programs. These include counseling, pre-school, Inuktitut literacy, youth activities and land-based cultural and healing programs. As Executive Director, Jakob Gearheard knows the critical importance of broadband in a remote community that has no bank or government office. Without broadband, online financial management would not be possible, and vital funding proposals and reports would not get submitted on time. Without broadband, an essential organization like Ilisaqsivik could not survive. Video sponsored by SSi Canada (https://www.ssicanada.com) operators of the QINIQ (https://www.qiniq.com) broadband network in Nunavut.

Local Representative Key to Connect Community

Mike Jaypoody has been the QINIQ Community Service Provider in Clyde River, Nunavut, from day one, since the launch of QINIQ in 2005. He knows first hand how important the QINIQ Internet service is for an isolated community, how it makes it possible for family members to stay in touch when some are far away, and how it simply provides the residents of Clyde River much needed access to the outside world.

Qview is a media-streaming platform that enables creators to effectively deliver video into satellite dependent communities without losing copyright control or ownership.

Qview is split into 2 parts named QvCentral (QvC) and QvLocal (QvL).

QvC is hosted in Ottawa and provides southerners with easy access to northern content while providing northerners with a single repository optimized for delivery over all backbone types.

QvL is a community-based server designed specifically for satellite communities. The purpose of QvL is to dramatically reduce backbone congestion and provide a better experience for the viewer at a much lower (or zero) usage consumption.

SSi Canada is proud to be involved with The Inuit Broadcasting Corporation in a pilot project aimed at bringing culturally relevant content to Canadians.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you are interested in having your own streaming channel.
