New infrastructure has been installed in the Quatsino First Nation’s subdivision 18, Coal Harbour, Sproat Lake, Forbidden Plateau and Nanoose Bay.

Access to high-speed, broadband internet has come to five more Vancouver Island communities, says the Ministry of Citizens’ Services.

“Faster, reliable internet access for these five Island communities will provide more economic opportunities and allow people to succeed in their home communities,” said North Island MLA Michele Babchuk, the premier’s liaison for cellular and connectivity. Quatsino First Nation senior manager Norman Champagne said high-speed internet leads to better collaboration in the community.

Andrew Hory, board chair of the Regional District of Mount Waddington, said improved internet connection for residents of northern Vancouver Island “has been one of our primary objectives for the past decade.”
