What you need to know: Broadband Investment

5/22/2019

Infrastructure Minister Monte McNaughton along with MPPs David Piccini (at microphone), Laurie Scott and Dave Smith, dropped in to Robins General Merchant in Roseneath recently to talk about investing in mobile broadband.

The Chamber was pleased to hear about the commitment of $71M to the Eastern Ontario Regional Network (EORN) cell gap project. We have been advocating for many years for expanded broadband access for businesses.

Peterborough County Warden and Chair of EORN J.Murray Jones also spoke about the first EORN project, which along with multiple layers of government and the private sector built a 5,000km digital highway through Eastern Ontario.

It's an important view as digital highways are just as important as our physical highways.
  • The project involves all Eastern Ontario Wardens' Caucus members and 10 separate municipalities.
  • The goal of the project is to bring cell coverage to 99 per cent of the region where people live, work and travel.
