Government of Canada invests to bring high-speed Internet to over 85 more homes in Bloomingdale9/9/2021 Ontarians in rural communities to benefit from increased connectivity
OTTAWA, ON, June 25, 2021 /CNW/ - The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted how much we rely on our connections. Now more than ever, Canadians across the country need access to reliable high-speed Internet as many of us are working, learning, and staying in touch with friends and family from home. Right now, too many Canadians living in rural and remote communities lack access to high-speed Internet. Through the Universal Broadband Fund (UBF) Rapid Response Stream, the Government of Canada is taking immediate action to get Canadians connected to the high-speed Internet they need. Today, Tim Louis, Member of Parliament for Kitchener–Conestoga, on behalf of the Honourable Maryam Monsef, Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Rural Economic Development, announced over $640,000 in federal funding for Avetria Wireless to bring high-speed Internet to residents of Bloomingdale, Ontario. This project will connect over 85 underserved households in the Waterloo region to high-speed Internet. This project was announced along with 26 other projects funded under the UBF Rapid Response Stream to bring high-speed connectivity to over 7,500 households in rural Ontario. The federal investment in these projects is nearly $16 million. The Universal Broadband Fund was launched in November 2020. Projects funded under the $2.75-billion UBF, as well as through other public and private investments, will help connect 98% of Canadians to high-speed Internet by 2026 and achieve the national target of 100% connectivity by 2030. Today's announcement builds on the progress the Government of Canada has already made to improve critical infrastructure in Ontario. Since 2015, the federal government has invested more than $2.85 billion in over 4,060 infrastructure projects in Ontario communities with a population of fewer than 100,000 people. These investments mean 452 km of new or upgraded roads that are making our communities safer; more than 938 projects to provide residents with cleaner, more sustainable sources of drinking water; and more than 5,427 additional housing units built in rural communities, helping ensure all Ontarians have a safe place to call home. Quotes "Broadband connectivity is essential to work or study from home and to stay in touch with loved ones. Today's important investment will help connect over 85 households in Bloomingdale. I've heard from many constituents who appreciate our response to the needs of the rural communities with these broadband investments, helping small businesses scale up and families stay connected." – Tim Louis, Member of Parliament for Kitchener–Conestoga "Founded in 2014, Avetria Networks Inc. is proud to have been chosen by the Government of Canada to deploy high-speed fibre Internet to over 85 homes in Bloomingdale. In the coming months, Avetria will invest nearly $220,000 to offer 1 Gbps Internet, telephone and TV service in this community. With our strong local roots, we are committed to improving the viability of a rural lifestyle while maintaining meaningful connections to the community and the world. Avetria is grateful for the support provided by the Government of Canada." – Arnold Stoll, President and CEO, Avetria Networks Inc. https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/government-of-canada-invests-to-bring-high-speed-internet-to-over-85-more-homes-in-bloomingdale-884748509.html We will be working along Sawmill, Ebycrest, Katherine St North and South. In communities of Bloomingdale, Winterbourne, West Montrose, and Conestogo
Working hard bringing fiber to our neighbors. We have begun connecting customers to our new fiber network. Speeds are exceptional and customer satisfaction is high.
We would like to thank all Winterbourne residence for their patience as we continue to install fiber to your homes. Some interesting facts: 1) We have installed to date 7000 ft (2.1KM) of conduit 2) We have installed to date 17300 ft (5.3KM) of fiber optic cable As of May 1 2018, we have made great progress within the Sunset and Meadowbrook subs.
Due to the interesting spring we are approximately 3.5 weeks behind. FIBER IS COMING!! We have starting running the main conduits from the Christian Foundation School to Sunset, Meadowbrook and Peel St. It has been a little slower start due to the frost in the ground, (come on mother nature help us out) but we did make good progress this week.
The main distribution cabinet will be installed this week and more conduits will be installed underground. Regarding Phase 2 which is all of Winterbourne North of Peel on Katherine St. This phase will be installed on hydro poles. We are working closely with Waterloo North Hydro on all requirements. Engineering and Pole attachment approvals should be in place by the 2nd week of May. It is our objective that Phase 2 will start immediately following Phase 1's completion. |
