ANIK D

Telecommunications in Canada expanded in 1982 with the 26 August launch of the Anik D-1 communications satellite.
The new satellite offers Canadians live coverage of parliamentary debates, cable television, and continuity of television
services, both nationally and regionally. Anik D-2, launched on the space shuttle 8 November 1984, was originally placed
in a storage orbit and was made operational in November 1986. The satellite carries voice and data traffic.
