Sure, and the US had a similar program. Just because the government promised something doesn't count until the thing is actually delivered.

Alberta already has one of the largest fiber networks on earth and has for more than a decade.

I know of at least some of the communities on the James Bay coast recently got fibre service and I think others along the Northern coast of Canada, along anecdotally several others in rural Ontario.

I am talking about money already spent and delivered, not future project that will probably be delivered on.
