The Internet story in Canada

March 8, 2006 by Michael Boyle

The Internet story in Canada

yesterday and in the near future has been Toronto Hydro’s announcement that they plan to roll out full WiFi access throughout Downtown Toronto in the next few months. During the initial rollout it will be free, but after 6 months they say that there will be 4 pricing plans to choose from.

I wonder – if you’re sitting in an apartment with a Hydro pole outside your window, do you ditch Rogers altogether and rely on the Utility company for your primary access? Or do you keep your Rogers or Bell service and sign up for the Hydro plan for those times when you roam around the city?
