Montreal, the second-largest city in Canada and the largest city in the province of Quebec, is going wireless. Two Montreal companies plan to blanket the city with wireless Internet service by 2009, making a big chunk of the island one huge wireless hotspot, reports the Montreal Gazette.
Internet service provider Radioactif and network installer Nomade Telecom will launch the first WiFi network and possibly WiMax in September on the Mount-Royal Plate. By 2009, they expect to cover nearly 90% of Montreal residents, over an area of 300 square kilometres.
