Deaf People In Nunavut Better VP Talk-Time
Deaf and hearing impaired people in Nunavut now have access to a state-of-the-art communications tool.
IQALUIT, Nunavut -- Nunavut MP and federal health minister Leona Aglukkaq took what she calls “a new way of communicating” on a test drive April 10 in Iqaluit.
That’s when she spoke to Clayton Ungungai of Baker Lake, a student at Algonquin College in Ottawa, who is Deaf, thanks to a new video-conference telephone connection. Helped by sign language interpreters on both ends, Aglukkaq asked Ungungai when he planned to graduate and what his plans were.
Aglukkaq learned that at the end of the month Ungungai graduates in aboriginal studies and then he wants to head back to Baker Laker, where his communication will be that much easier due to the new video telephone he’ll have at home.
“Thanks to this project, hearing impaired people in Nunavut now have access to a state-of-the-art communications tool,” Aglukkaq said.
Six communities in Nunavut are now participating in a pilot project to test the video-conference equipment in a partnership between the governments of Canada and Nunavut, the Nunavut Broadband Development Corp., and the Canadian Deafness Research and Training Institute.
The special telephone, which is outfitted with a tiny video screen so that people on both ends can see each other sign, is an easy thing to use and not expensive to supply: $200 a phone, a $75 modem along with access to dedicated broadband, the most expensive and essential part of the new communication...

Deaf Prisoner Advocacy: The FCC For Change
Discrimination Against Deaf, Hard of Hearing & signing users.
HEARD interns Rita Torres & Alexandre Dubsky explain how the Community can support equal communication access for all Deaf, hard of hearing, speech impaired prisoners and their family members.
On December 28, 2012, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to address the long-standing issue of high prison telephone rates. Hearing prisoners' telephone calls can cost their family members as much as $17 for just 15 minutes of time. These excessive rates prevent families from maintaining contact with loved ones.
Deaf, hard of hearing, Deaf-Blind, speech impaired, and hearing prisoners with Deaf family members endure an even greater financial burden with respect to telephone rates due to a number of factors, including (1) telephone rates being applied evenly to TTY and regular voice phone calls, the former of which is much more time-consuming; (2) failure of prisons to install videophones and captioned telephones; (3) security measures that either prevent Deaf prisoners from calling relay operators or cause them to incur additional fees by requiring relay services; and (4) security measures that require Deaf prisoners to only place collect calls.
The FCC has requested public comments on whether prisoner phone rates should be reduced and capped and on Deaf & disabled prisoner telecommunications access. This video explains some of the inequities that persist for Deaf, signing & speech impaired prisoners and their families with regard to rates for and access to telecommunications in prison. Please follow the directions in the document to submit a comment to the FCC. http://www.fcc.gov.

911 Staff Will Text Message With Deaf Canadians
Canadians who have hearing or speech problems will soon be able to send text messages to 911 services.
OTTAWA, Ontario -- Canadians who have hearing or speech problems will soon be able to send text messages to 911 services, other Canadians, however, must continue to communicate with 911 services over the phone, says Canada's telecommunications regulator.
By Jan. 24, 2014, all telephone and wireless companies must upgrade their networks to support text messaging communication with Canadians who have hearing and speech impairments. The service may become available before then in areas where the upgrades are completed early.
"Services such as 911 are critical to the health and safety of all Canadians,” said Jean-Pierre Blais, chairman of the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission in a statement Thursday.
“This initiative is a perfect example of how technology can be used to improve access to 911 services for Canadians with disabilities." ...Read The Full Story.
