The great breadbasket of Canada looks to bring wireless to major municipalities: The middle part of the country is known for agriculture, and has under 1m population, although food ranks far below oil these days in revenue. The province aims to help improve connectivity for its residents and for business travelers by adding free Wi-Fi to the four largest cities. Because of the relatively low population and large amount of business conducted, it's a relatively low-cost win--Cdn$1.3m for installing 250 nodes across the locations selected and Cdn$339K per year.
