Rural Broadband — Kaslo Style.

If rural BC is to prosper in the 21st century, access to affordable, reliable high-speed Internet is essential. Kaslo InfoNet (KiN)’s Don Scarlett and Tim Ryan talk about fibre optic broadband  in Kaslo & the North Kootenay Lake region — how a small-town, community-controlled non-profit has managed to bring big city bandwidth to tiny (pop. 1,000) Kaslo and surrounding region, and what other communities can learn from their experience.

This is podcast is must listening for rural British Columbians who don’t want their communities left behind by a 21st century economy increasingly dominated by new & emerging technologies.
