In some instances, Internet service providers (ISP) will not be able to provide service to 100 percent of households within a community designated as serviced.

Backbone and last-mile coverage information has been collected by ISED through consultation with ISPs, the CRTC, industry associations, provinces and territories, and other stakeholders.
Rural communities that are more than 2 km from an access point to high-capacity backbone are eligible for new backbone funding. Communities that are not shown on this map are considered to have access to high-capacity backbone but may be eligible for capacity upgrades or resiliency projects.
** Areas (shown as hexagons) which do not have any existing broadband service of 5 Mbps or greater are eligible for new last-mile funding. Areas that are not shown but are partially-served at 5 Mbps may be eligible for last-mile funding.
