 | Boondoggle on the way Don't expect any miracles from this "initiative". It has nothing to do with technological advancement, and everything to do with vote buying by providing "services" to the hot-button special interest groups. All paid for, of course, by the taxpayer. Oh and don't forget the extra revenue this deal will generate for the Canadian bubble-darlings like Nortel and JDS. And I have to wonder, has anyone actually asked the "First Nations, northern, remote and rural communities" if they really need or want broadband? Or if they can think of other more pressing ways to spend all of this money?
