Subject: [Advisors] Toronto votes for community broadband

Hi Advisors. It feels like so yesterday (i.e. 1995) when everyone dreamed of this kind of solution to accessibility.


ConnectTO aims<https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/mmis/2021/ex/bgrd/backgroundfile-159927.pdf> to build a community-owned fibre Internet network to connect homes and public spaces in Toronto, as well as leverage municipal resources and assets to help fix gaps in connectivity and affordability. As it stands, it will see ISPs purchase access to the network from the city in order to resell services to residents.
