What Residents Are Saying About Galaxy Fibre

Maranda
White River, ON

Galaxy Fibre has been amazing! The moment we tried streaming two different things at the same time with no buffering, I knew it was different. It’s the best internet I’ve ever had—I couldn’t say enough good things about it.

Tara
White River, ON

Since switching to Galaxy Fibre, the speed is 20x faster and it’s only gone down once. Honestly, why haven’t you switched yet? If you need proof, bring your laptop by and see the difference for yourself!

Chrishanna
White River, ON

My experience has been really good with no issues so far. I switched on a friend’s recommendation and realized it’s not only reliable but also cheaper than my old provider. More convenient, more affordable—simple as that.

Charles
White River, ON

Galaxy Fibre has been great. The installation technician was excellent, and the service is faster, more reliable, and $25/month cheaper than my last plan with Shaw—plus $85/month less than the new Rogers plan promoted recently. I highly recommend it.

Lisa
White River, ON

Our internet is so much better now—no more choppiness. Tech support is easier too, with less automation and more real help. Switching to Galaxy Fibre was absolutely worth it.

Claudia
White River, ON

Our experience has been really good with far fewer interruptions and much less frustration. From the very beginning, Galaxy Fibre felt different—from the setup, to the options, to the fact that you almost always get a real person when you call. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for reliable internet.

  1. a) complete a site assessment and submit statutory utility locate requests, where required; b) install underground fibre-optic facilities from the road allowance or public right-of-way to a demarcation point at the premises, and install any required indoor and/or outdoor demarcation equipment; c) test, operate, access, maintain, repair, replace, relocate, or remove CNPI facilities on reasonable notice; and d) restore disturbed areas following construction.

2) Scope & Installation Methods

Work may include trenching, boring, directional drilling, and/or placement through existing conduit or pathways, where feasible, and may occur over multiple visits. Final route and installation method may change due to utility locates, field conditions, permitting, municipal requirements, or safety considerations. CNPI will follow industry best practices and use existing pathways where reasonably possible.

3) Facilities Ownership

All fibre, conduit, drop cables, and demarcation equipment installed by or for CNPI remain the property of CNPI or its partners, and do not become fixtures.

4) Restoration

CNPI will restore disturbed areas to a substantially similar condition, season and weather permitting. Temporary restoration may be completed first, with final restoration performed when conditions allow. Certain surfaces, including sod, asphalt, concrete, interlock, or landscaping, may require temporary patching before final restoration is completed.

5) Landscaping & Surface Features (Private Property)

You acknowledge that underground installation may require limited disturbance to lawns, gardens, driveways, walkways, or other surface features in order to complete the work safely and efficiently. CNPI will make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption and restore affected areas in accordance with Section 4.

6) Utility Locates & Private Lines

CNPI will obtain statutory utility locates where required.

7) Third-Party Infrastructure & Permissions

This permission does not grant rights over third-party lands, infrastructure, or municipal assets outside the property boundary. Any required permissions, permits, or approvals relating to the public right-of-way or third-party infrastructure will be obtained by CNPI as required. You authorize work and equipment placement on your property only.

8) No Service Commitment

This consent does not obligate you to purchase services. It authorizes construction so that service may be made available to the premises.

9) Access Windows

Work will occur during reasonable hours. CNPI may access the property at any time in the event of an emergency involving safety, service continuity, or network integrity. CNPI will provide reasonable notice for non-emergency visits where practical.

10) Indemnity & Liability

CNPI is responsible for direct, provable physical damage caused by CNPI’s negligence. CNPI is not liable for indirect, consequential, incidental, or special damages, and is not liable for damage to unmarked or incorrectly marked private facilities. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

11) Term; Revocation

This permission remains in effect through installation and while CNPI facilities serve the premises. You may revoke this permission on 30 days’ written notice, except where access is required to maintain, repair, or safely remove facilities. This permission is not an easement or other interest in land.

12) Assignment / Subcontractors

CNPI may assign this permission to its affiliates and may use authorized contractors or subcontractors to perform the work.

13) Privacy & Contact

Information is collected to plan locates, schedule, and perform installation and maintenance, and may be shared with contractors, utility owners, municipalities, and infrastructure partners for those purposes. A copy of your submission will be emailed to you.
