CANARIE

• Why are we using CAnet 4 for this project?
  For the same reason that Wayne Gretsky was such a
  fantastic hockey player. He always went to where
  the puck was going to be. Technology is the same
  thing. You have to anticipate where its all
  going. Were convinced if you look at the
  trends, broadband networks like CAnet 4 will
  become mainstream.
