Canada’s telecommunications industry is dominated by national carriers that are focused on investing in markets with high population densities. As a result most rural and remote communities do not have infrastructure that provides fast, future-ready broadband services that residents need; and they are unable to provide the advanced support that business and industry require. Today’s economy and changing workforce requires access to high-speed broadband networks.
Through your support, Community Network Partners looks to develop networks that are critical to the delivery of broadband services in niche markets, with a focus and expertise in rural, remote and First Nation communities, including commercial and residential users.
To collaboratively build broadband networks with our partner communities, improving economic growth, resiliency, and improving access to health and education services systematically bridging the digital divide for rural and remote Canada.
Community Network Partners aims to meet the social and economic development priorities that enhanced connectivity to the community brings, while providing various financial benefits designed to support the community’s budgetary needs.
Within such a short period of time, We have partnered with different government units and trusted organizations throughout Canada.
