Waste of a project?
I did a search before I posted this, and read through some of the old threads. Someone posted a link about a year ago about 'internet coverage province/state wide.' Alberta was an anomaly. Almost our entire province has broadband internet, while other provinces have zones with nothing except dialup or satellite. Reason? Well, I know that Platinum Communications, probably the #1 reason there is internet all over rural Alberta is tied directly into the SuperNet.
I wouldn't call it a waste. 10 years from now it won't be a waste.

This was from his mouth. The basis was on satellite tech and microwave usage. The money it cost to build the project vs other technologies. But I am spewing things an engineer talked to me about who again built and designed parts of the project.
