(EORN). A range of speeds and services will be available to serve the needs of business customers in these locations. The business park project, valued at about $8.9 million, is the latest phase of the EORN project, a $70 million initiative to expand rural broadband throughout the region. Created by the War- dens’ Caucus, the project is supported by federal, provincial, and municipal funding, and private sector investment. “EORN is a key economic development tool for the re- gion andwe are pleased to extend the reach of the network to these important business hubs,” said EOWC Chair Rick Philips. “These efforts to expand high-speed In- ternet fibre to local business parks will help us attract and retain local business and sup- port our economic growth,” said Cornwall Mayor Bob Kilger. “Thanks to prudent finan- cial management and project oversight, we are able to deliver this added value to busi- ness parks as part of the EORN initiative,” said EORN Chair David Burton.

CORNWALL | In a boost to the region’s eco- nomic development, the Eastern Ontario Wardens’ Caucus (EOWC) has awarded contracts to expand high-speed fibre In- ternet connections at more than 50 busi- ness parks and clusters across rural East- ern Ontario. Bell Aliant, Cogeco Cable Inc. and Utili- ties Kingston were awarded contracts to provide the new high-capacity, high-speed fibre Internet connections. The project adds to the number of business parks and clus- ters that already have broadband service in the region. The companies are building the new services off of their existing infrastruc- ture, as well as off of the 5,500-kilometre fi- bre-optic backbone that was built through the Eastern Ontario Regional Network
Donations to the hospital

Pommier Jewellers and Scotiabank Brookdale presented a cheque of $10,805 to the Cornwall Hospital Foundation (CHF). The amount was raised during the three-day celebration of the grand re-opening of the Pommier family business. Scotiabank sponsored the event with a matching donation of $5,000. Also key in raising funds for the CHF was the sale of Pommier Jewellers’replica clocks and other generous do- nations from event attendees. Seen here with Erin Killoran and Angela Preston from the Cornwall Hospital Foundation are André, France and Maryse Pommier of Pom- mier Jewellers, and Scotiabank’s Branch Manager Tina Lamarche, as well as Cindy Sommers, Diane Dupuis and Cynthia Molnar.
