Sarnia, Ontario, Canada – January 14, 2021 – Bluewater Regional Networks, Inc. (BRN) a network operator affiliated with the Bluewater Power Group of Companies, announces a new terrestrial Canada-US route, utilizing a brand new border crossing. The new path offers redundant and diverse connectivity between Toronto, Ontario, Canada and Chicago, IL, USA.  The new border crossing linking Sarnia, Ontario and Port Huron, Michigan provides the ability to design unique network solutions between and throughout Canada and the US.

“BRN is a part of a very well established group of entities providing reliable and resilient services for over 100 years,” comments Chris Gould, Chief Operating Officer for Bluewater Regional Networks. “Our community-owned network was established to solve the local digital divide issues throughout the Sarnia-Lambton region, with an emphasis on a global approach to enhance connectivity to Canada and throughout North America. Headquartered in Sarnia, our region is uniquely positioned and has served as a highly traversed commercial gateway between Canada and the United States for over a century, we are excited to add to our story with this new historical network route.”

The BRN network is designed as a new, non-incumbent route that completely avoids 151 Front Street (Toronto) and 350 E. Cermak (Chicago). The path provides direct cross-border connectivity from 45 Parliament, Toronto, and Sarnia, ON to 427 S LaSalle, Chicago, IL with multiple access points throughout Ontario and within the States of Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois.
