What is the difference between the Internet and the World Wide Web?

The terms “Internet” and “World Wide Web” are often used interchangeably, but they refer to distinct concepts. The Internet is a vast global network of interconnected computers and servers, that facilitate data transmission and communication. The World Wide Web, on the other hand, is a subset of the Internet comprising web pages, websites, and multimedia content accessible through web browsers. While the Internet encompasses a broader range of technologies and services, the World Wide Web specifically focuses on the presentation and retrieval of information through web pages.

Peace Power proudly provides quality Internet services in Acadia Valley, Alberta

In Alberta, and across Canada, internet utility regulation is primarily under federal jurisdiction. The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) is the main regulatory body that oversees internet service providers (ISPs). The CRTC establishes policies and rules to ensure that Canadians have access to reliable, affordable, and high-quality internet services.

The CRTC has implemented policies aimed at fostering competition among ISPs, improving transparency about internet service pricing and contracts, and promoting investment in broadband infrastructure, particularly in rural and remote areas. It has also taken steps towards recognizing internet access as a basic service, setting targets for internet speed and availability that ISPs should aim to meet.

In addition to the CRTC, the Competition Bureau also plays a role in regulating internet services by enforcing laws against anti-competitive business practices.

While the province of Alberta does not directly regulate internet services, it can influence internet utility through its policies on infrastructure development, digital literacy, and other related areas. For example, it might provide funding for broadband infrastructure projects in underserved areas, or support programs to help Albertans develop the skills they need to use digital technologies effectively.
