Mr. McKay, we met in a particularly connected city, Saint-Sauveur, which won an eTown award for the most connected city in Canada. I can tell you that, in my riding, that is an exception. If we want business to move forward to the future, we have to make sure that a network is available, that the signal is of an acceptable quality and that the service is provided at an affordable price.
In Mont-Saint-Michel, in the north of the riding where I live, the service is very expensive. It is like driving the Flintstones' car on a freeway. You spend hours trying to do business online. Then it crashes and stops working.
Have you seen similar conditions in more rural or remote regions of Canada? Do you think the networks are up to providing businesses with service?
