Since the December 28th update, the permits for Richmond continue to experience regulatory delays. We have submitted 3 updates requested by the communications strand owner and have just received another round of requests for further revisions not previously flagged. The permits continue to be escalated to push for completion. Project Richmond will get built as […]

A homegrown approach to rural high-speed Internet
February 4, 2020 – 4:53 pm Robin Sukhu If you live in rural Ontario, you know all about dreaming about high-speed internet. I live in Mississippi Mills and like most rural areas, we are stuck with either satellite service or over the air wireless with data caps, pitiful download speeds – and it is expensive. […]
March Update
Wow things have been happening! Apologies for the late update, but we’d just like to mention that service is up and running all the way out to the end of Kidd Road, with a lot of homes connected along the way. Our crew has been working tirelessly deploying cables and splicing fibres throughout the cold […]
December update
This will be the month of light and we will be officially starting to bring some zones online next week! With several PON segments online and active, the splicing crew is completing connections into the main trunk lines from the drops we have installed through out the area. As this happens, we are able to […]
Light on the Fibre!
We now officially have light on some of the Fibre strands to zones and are working to finalize installations. If you have had a tech visit your location and run cable / install a box similar to the picture below, expect to hear from us shortly to get you online. There are a few test […]
November Update

Presently that commitment has been shifted twice now. We will have a better understanding of where things reside come Tuesday, November 6th […]
October Update
We wanted to give a quick update to let everyone know the current situation for the Beckwith Project. This week we are working on completing optical testing to ensure line integrity is ready on Glenashton, Dewar, Amberwood and then on to Crooked Rd and Kidd road. Unfortunately the Tornado did cause a few setbacks for […]
Rock Solid Guys
Winter sure isn’t letting up, but we’re not stopping either! In this update you can see the various stages of installing rock bolts/anchors for guying the “messenger stand” that the fibre cables are attached to. While the snow doesn’t help the crew move around, the frozen ground certainly enables moving heavy equipment to difficult places […]
RC8 September Update
It’s been great meeting everyone in the community over the past few weeks, especially the kind offers of water and reprieve from the late summer’s heat! What a nice change from July, and just in time for Thanksgiving, more seasonal (but still pleasant) weather is upon us. While going door-to-door, we’ve been listening to your […]
