Well, In the case of downtown Vancouver the company offers television and internet (fibre optic) to the buildings they have wired. New buildings in the downtown core are often have fibre put in at construction. This is a small company for sure, in comparison to Shaw cable and Telus (our "local" telco) which are huge monopolies. Like I said I am quite happy with my situation but realize I am lucky to have bought a home in a building serviced by this company. Hopefully, this trend of connecting up new condtruction will continue.
