THUNDER BAY – More than 16,000 households are expected to secure high-speed internet access thanks to over $61 million in joint federal-provincial funding.
The Innovation Centre says that will bring Tbaytel fibre service to over 2,600 households in the Township of Conmee, Township of Gillies, Township of O’Connor, Municipality of Neebing, Municipality of Oliver Paipoonge and the Municipality of Shuniah.Another $1.3 million of the government funds will support a $1.8 million expansion of fibre internet to up to 691 households in Ignace. Celerity Telecom, the corporate partner on the project, will invest up to an additional $207,000.
Jeff Coull of the Innovation Centre said in a statement the agency had struggled to entice telecoms to enter the market in small communities like Ignace. "High-speed internet service is essential to the success of everyone living and working in rural communities across Ontario,” she said in a statement. “Today’s investment will help create jobs, improve access to health care and online learning services, and keep people connected to their family, friends and loved ones.”
