OUR STORY

Connecting Communities Since 2002

Broadband Communications North (BCN) is an Indigenous-led, not-for-profit telecommunications organization connecting rural, northern and remote communities across Manitoba.

BCN was established to help bring reliable connectivity to communities that had been underserved by traditional telecommunications networks. More than two decades later, we continue to build and support connectivity around the needs of the communities we serve.
