Nibinamik First Nation leadership is supporting the development of a local broadband service that provides community members with access to telehealth and high speed data services. The local wireless community network is connected to a Kuhkenah Network T1 service that can support video conferencing from different locations throughout the community.

K-Net's Network Manager (Dan) and Systems Analyst (Terence) are in Summer Beaver working with their local technician on the local network to ensure their broadband network is able to manage the different traffic properly.

May 26 is being set recognized by groups across Canada as our National Day of Healing and Reconciliation. Events are being planned by different groups across the country to support residential school survivors.
