The Kativik Regional Government is launching its own broadband internet service throughout the region, starting in December.

The service, called Tamaani, meaning “here” in Inuttitut, will be available to all residential users, organizations and businesses, with a basic home package for 500 MB of traffic available for $60 a month.

Tamaani is to start on Dec. 6 in all Nunavik communities via a wireless device.

According to a news release from the KRG, clients of the new service will be able to get a signal allowing Internet access in any Nunavik community.
