"The term digital divide was coined in the 1990s during the rise of the digital economy. It described the divide between those who had access to the internet and those who did not. Today, the divide includes almost one-third of Canadians who do not have access to high-speed internet (50 Megabytes Per Second downloads), those who do not have a reliable device and those who lack digital literacy skills."
