CANCOM SEEKS TO LAUNCH SATELLITE SERVICE

Mississauga, Ont.-based Canadian Satellite Communications Inc. has announced it intends to offer a communications service using a low-Earth orbit satellite system by late 1998. The service would include commercial voice, data and fax functions. An application for the service has been submitted to Industry Canada.
