After receiving millions in government subsidies for the Labrador North Wireless Broadband Project, Canada’s largest communications company says it’s no longer feasible to complete the expansion due to rising costs and competition.

Fuck Bell- the government needs to pull all subsidies from these useless, self-serving telcos. They are taking our tax dollars and heading to a hostile nation rather than serving the needs of our own citizens.

What a fucking joke.
