Would be interesting to see if companies like Google, who have a significant stake in a "free and open internet", could establish operations in Canada. Google wants users online as much as possible so they can continue to serve ads. It's too bad all that dark fiber they own doesn't extend into Canada.

Canadian telecom providers must (by law) be majority Canadian owned. So sadly no, Google could not do this.
