Improving Connectivity for Ontario (ICON) Broadband program will support local collaborative projects to connect more unserved and underserved homes and businesses, often in rural, remote and northern communities.

The province’s investment of $150 million announced July 10/20 is part of the $315 million Up to Speed: Ontario’s Broadband and Cellular Action Plan. This action plan has the potential to leverage up to $1 billion in partner funding for broadband infrastructure investments.  

As our province continues to safely and gradually reopen, we are supporting our economic recovery efforts by continuing to expand broadband and cellular service across the province.
