No matter where you live, access to reliable, affordable high-speed Internet is essential. Connecting with loved ones, operating a business, working remotely and accessing vital services, like health care and education, requires a fast, dependable Internet connection. That is why the Government of Canada is connecting 98% of Canadians to high-speed Internet by 2026 and 100% of Canadians by 2030.
