Sturgeon County has teamed up with Alberta’s not-for-profit technology agency Cybera to test residents’ home internet speeds. Our goal is to identify infrastructure gaps and improve internet access for everyone in the community, no matter how remote they are.
According to data collected by the federal government, most residents in Sturgeon County have access to high-speed internet. This testing will help us verify that data.
