Clearly, I have no training as an economist to be able to provide you with specific data about the impact. However, if you allow me, I will talk about accessibility.
Earlier, we talked about the farmers and the UPA. I come from the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region that has many cattle farms and dairy farms. Farmers have made some shifts and technological choices to increase their production capacity and to be able to remain competitive on the national stage. They have acquired sophisticated measuring equipment and sensors that monitor the entire production and animal life in real time.
However, unfortunately, as soon as those people move away 200 feet from their WiFi terminal, if they work in the fields or if they are on the road, they no longer receive any security updates as to crises that could occur in their production facilities.
So access to the Internet, particularly mobile Internet, has unexpected impacts. As you mentioned, the issue of all mobile applications, which are currently being developed and are not accessible, will really affect the entire competitiveness dimension of the rural scene and, unfortunately, speed up the decline of the communities that are most likely to feel it.
