*"OTTAWA-GATINEAU* — The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) today announced a decision that addresses the requirements for voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) service providers to offer emergency 9-1-1 service.
In this decision, the Commission requires VoIP service providers who provide *fixed* VoIP service to provide the same level of 9-1-1 emergency service that is provided by the incumbent telephone companies to their existing customers (either Enhanced 9-1-1 or Basic 9-1-1 service), within 90 days from the date of this decision.
The Commission requires VoIP service providers providing either *nomadic* VoIP service or *foreign* *exchange* VoIP service to implement, within 90 days of the date of this decision, an interim solution which provides a level of service comparable to Basic 9-1-1 service."
