1988 SiliTun View / Map of Tech in Canada - the Silicon Tundra

Silicon Valley? Has been. Silicon Alley? Snobs. Silicon Beach? Stick to movies. The real action is up north - the Silicon Tundra! Canada's tech industry is booming - truly the envy of the world, as this poster makes clear. Supported by strong educational underpinnings (McGill), government support from the National Research Council, excellent infrastructure, and arctic cold (perfect for the server farm crowd), Canadian tech giants like Pure Data, Mitel, Trillium, and Smert are redefining global digital life. Canada - the future is now! This poster celebrates you!

Publication History and Census

This map was designed by Noble Graphics, Neapean, Ontario, and published in 1988 by Silitun. We have successfully traced none of these businesses. Nor have we identified any other examples of this poster / map. It does however, fit into a genre of similar posters including the famous 'Silicon Valley' series. Extremely scarce.
