The governments of Canada and Ontario, in partnership with Southwestern Integrated Fibre Technology (SWIFT) Inc., have completed construction on a significant broadband infrastructure project. More than 630 families, farms and businesses in Dufferin County will have access to fast, reliable high-speed internet service.
“Our government is delivering on its commitment to provide access to high-speed internet throughout rural Ontario,” said Lisa Thompson, Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs. “Projects like this in Dufferin County that connect more communities to high-speed internet are crucial to building a stronger Ontario. We’re helping rural residents stay in touch with loved ones, enabling them to access supports they need while providing a much-needed boost to the local economy.”
Both levels of government have each committed more than $538,000 to the project, to provide the communities of Laurel, Salem and Camilla with access to high-speed internet.
