Agreed, however over the next 50 to 100 years you might see a big migration=
North as temperature continue rising and continuous shipping via the North=
ern passage.
The Quintillion cable is really being built to link Asia and Europe via an =
ultra low latency path. Attaching fiber spurs to those Northern Communities=
is a way of getting Canadian government support and money.

There are a lot more cows than people with money in rural/remote areas.
Getting fiber to remote unserved areas is not a technical problem, it's a m=
oney/political problem.
On a good day, deploying 400 km of fiber costs in the ballpark of $10M. To =
that you then have to add the recurring costs of operations, maintenance an=
d fees for the use of the right of way.
If the community can pay for that, all is good and well, just have at it. I=
f not, somebody has to subsidize it and then it becomes a political problem=
.

Warning: For just plain curiosity at the moment.
I was looking for publicly accessible feasibility studies, white
papers, etc, about long distance fiber deployment. (> 400km, aka >250
miles)
The interest comes from documenting myself about how poorly
deserved are the northern communities in Canada. And how "freakn a
shame it is to get pwned" by France telecom wise =3DD.
At this point my Goolge Fu is hardly getting thru the pointless
clutter search engines accumulated over the years...
From the numerous input so far:
A lot of the attempts where made to use facilities like rail or
electrical grid distribution, but it always ended squashed by a massive
push back from the telecom industries, and in one case, maybe the FMI.
I'm thinking:
If people can invest millions into DOTCOM that put fitbits on
cows... There must be a way to help those communities. And ourself,
from under the telecom giants.
Thanks.
