We stand together with the Chairs of the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus, the Eastern Ontario Mayors’ Caucus, and the Eastern Ontario Regional Broadband Network in their efforts to urge you to get behind the Project. The Gig Project is the right one for eastern Ontario. It ensures that homes, businesses, schools, medical offices, and other institutions as well as seasonal properties get connected through fibre optic cable - the best technology for today and the future. EORN studies highlight the economic benefits that would come our way with its Gig Project. Job creation, additional employment income, more innovation, reduced health care costs among other things add up to a winning solution for the people of eastern Ontario. The EORN model works. Over the years, we’ve seen EORN successfully get more private sector investment than anticipated in its public private partnership projects. EORN is efficient, cost effective and nimble. You know you can rely on its professionals to get the job done. We appreciate the leadership you have both shown by securing historic levels of funding for building out broadband infrastructure. You have made this critical infrastructure a priority for 1 both Canada and Ontario by together earmarking $7 billion for broadband.
