The NENA Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) Canadian Civic Location Data Exchange Format (CLDXF-CA) Standard provides, for the first time in Canadian 9-1-1 history, a common, unified and standardized civic addressing data structure accommodating all provinces and territories for the purpose of exchanging Canadian civic location information locally, nationally, and internationally. The Standard defines the detailed data elements needed for address data exchange and formally registers the Canadian profile of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Presence Information Data Format-Location Object (PIDF-LO) civic location data.
Thank you to the CLDXF-CA Working Group members for committing their time and expertise to establishing this standard.

The following is a statement by Brian Fontes, CEO of NENA: The 9-1-1 Association, on last week's vote by the House Energy and Commerce Committee’s for a budget reconciliation bill for FY25 that omits essential funding for 9-1-1 system upgrades.
"Last week, NENA sent a letter to the committee reminding them of their prior bipartisan commitment to using a portion of Federal Communications Commission spectrum auction revenues to upgrade every community to Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1). That commitment is absent in the legislation approved early Wednesday, leaving Americans stuck with antiquated, last-century 9-1-1 technology in their time of greatest need. Plus, the system itself is vulnerable to cyberattacks.
"Like any chain, the public safety system is only as strong as its weakest link, and today, the weakest link is 9-1-1. NG9-1-1 is too important to our nation’s security and safety to be left unfunded."
