I welcome you to our website, which is
designed to be our members' focal point to keep in touch and up to date,
and to introduce visitors to our Section and the activities of its
members. Our interests are primarily technical, in the diverse
fields of things electrical such as electrical power generation and
distribution, wired and wireless telecommunications, digital networks
and data processing, and the ubiquitous computer. There are many
other interests as can be seen by exploring the IEEE Toronto links on
