From the past....

Five remote First Nations communities in northwestern Ontario are one step closer to getting high-speed internet, but leaders continue to push for a fully-funded service, equivalent to the rest of the province.
Work to upgrade internet service is being planned for Nibinamik, Webequie, Neskantaga, Eabametoong and Marten Falls, according to Matawa.
While the group welcomes the funding, the communities continue to push senior levels of government for money needed to construct the new system, the tribal council said in a Thursday press release, especially in light of some rural communities in southwestern Ontario already moving on to ultra-high speed internet with the help of government funding.
Officials with Matawa say the plan is to have some of the remote communities hooked up to basic broadband by summer, 2017.
The total cost of the project is estimated at $60 million, according to Matawa.
Corrections
- A previous version of this story stated the total cost of the project is estimated at $4.028 million. That was based on information from Matawa First Nations Management. Matawa subsequently provided corrected information, that stated the planning and design is estimated at $4.028 million, the project's total costs are $60 million.
