former Canuck in LA

I've lived in some of these areas.
WISP (one per community) could work, however the cost of infrastucture + government taxes would eat away at your profits real quick.

I take it you aren't aware that corporate taxes in Canada are considerably lower then they are in the USA right now?

Infrastructure though, yeah, that can eat away profits quick. It'll be interesting to see if the CRTC forces the current high-speed providers to give low-cost broadband access to a POP that can then be served over wireless to a rural area. We'll have to wait and see.

Also, there is already a MASSIVE wireless broadband/regular speed network across a good deal of the Northwest Territories and Yukon. Look and Microcell were involved in it for a while, it's all based on 2.5GHz MMDS.
