Subject: [Starlink] Subsidised in Canada for Starlink-Hardware
Date: Mon, 16 May 2022 14:22:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <47310bc7-d368-11f2-c54f-ce3b942ea531@falco.ca> (raw)
Hello,
The Canadian province of Quebec wants to subsidise
Starlink-subscriptions for 10,200 hard to reach homes. The subsidy,
apparently, is not ongoing, but a one-off for purchasing the hardware.
In four Manitoba communities, federal money will provide a subsidy of
CAD 900 each for 1,162 households. That covers the device plus tax, but
not Starlink's delivery fee or any cost of installation.
