Mr. Speaker, let me thank my hon. colleague for Miramichi—Grand Lake for working so hard to get his community connected to high-speed Internet. It is because of his hard work, and the hard work of members like him, that by the end of this month, 2,973 households in New Brunswick will be connected to this essential service. In the next two years, another 83,000 will have high-speed connectivity.
I urge my colleagues across the aisle to stop spreading misinformation about the program. It is discouraging their communities from applying.
Our government will work with all partners to get every Canadian connected.
