Ford government agrees to fee cancelling $100M deal with Elon Musk’s Starlink

Cancelling the deal does leave 15,000 homes in northern Ontario which had been promised high-speed internet without it.

$6,666 per household doesn't seem like that good of a deal to me, especially since it would still be like 100$ minimum per household per month for internet, for a company that is out of country as well. I'm a little surprised they wanted to in the first place... just throw that 100M into infrastructure. Like sure it won't go as far but, in the long run, it is more cost effective and allows for domestic business, where it is just 100M down the drain investing into a US based company giving it pretty hefty sway. Like what would be the contingency plan for if starlink had decided that Ontario wasn't worth covering anymore? like sure there was likely some form of fee involved but, you would be back to square one + being out the 100M

Ford is a sloth, coward, and related to alcoholics and crack addicts. He’s in the back pocket of every major big business and has no concern for how he wastes our money as long as it goes to the haves and not the have nots.

I look forward to Doug Ford rotting in his gravy train filled coffin.

Degenerate silver spoon drug dealing goon is all this blob of flesh is.
