T
hey've spent the last few years working to
provide Winkler with some of the fastest high-
speed internet connections in the country.
Now, telecommunications firm Valley
Fiber Ltd. is poised to extend that reach even further,
bringing its highly touted fiber optic connectivity to 27
communities in southern Manitoba.
As with Winkler's world-class hook-ups, the new
infrastructure rollout is aimed at improving quality of
life and bolstering economic productivity, while also
stimulating tech-sector interest in the Pembina Valley
region — until now a tough sell on account of its spotty
internet service and slow connection speeds.
"We're from Winkler — we go to school here, we do
business here, and this is where our families live," says
Conley Kehler, senior vice-president at Valley Fiber.
"Because everything is so under-serviced, we saw a
need. And we decided to meet that need."
