A reliable broadband connection is critical for the success of rural areas, especially during these recent times.
With an estimated 7.75 billion people connected to broadband across the globe, the obvious question must be why countries such as the USA and Canada are unable to get connected. The answer comes down to both cost and population density.
Approximately 21.3 million Americans are living without access to a high-speed internet connection, and 60% of rural Canadians are living without adequate provision, highlighting the increasing importance of getting more of the population online.
