第一波还真都是体育场馆，buses and trains 都是后话。
OTTAWA — The City of Ottawa is moving ahead with plans to use a sponsorship arrangement to provide free public Wi-Fi Internet in some of its buildings, and may eventually offer the service on buses and trains, and at parks and sports fields.
Tender documents issued on Thursday state that the city expects “that there are creative ways in which the city could work with an outside partner to provide free public Wi-Fi service within city public buildings to residents/visitors at no cost to the city, as well as generate revenue for all parties.”
The city is considering having the technology rolled out to groups of 25 buildings at a time, in areas such as main lobbies, waiting spaces and cafeterias. The first group would include City Hall, Ben Franklin Place/Centrepointe Theatre, ByWard Market building, Jack Purcell Community Centre, Nepean Sportsplex and Kanata Recreation Complex.
New locations could include community centres, parks and sports fields, and arts and heritage facilities, the documents state, and “the city may offer Wi-Fi services on city buses and trains in the future.”
Bidders can submit a business model that would have advertisers pay to broadcast messages to people who use the wireless Internet service, the documents say. The city expects to have the winning company pay an “annual exclusive Wi-Fi solution fee” and share some of the advertising revenue.
The city would cover the electrical costs associated with operating the system, while the winning company would supervise and maintain it.
The company would be offered signs in city buildings and would be identified on the city’s website as the “official supplier of Wi-Fi services,” the documents say. The company may also propose to offer “premium” access at a fee, they state.
Proposals must be received by April 24, and the city intends to have the service installed in the first set of buildings within six months of a contract being signed, the documents say. Staff conducted a “request for expressions of interest” in June as they researched the viability of offering free Internet access through some sort of partnership.
The National Capital Commission also offers free wireless Internet access on such sites as Parliament Hill, the National War Memorial and Major’s Hill Park.

This is all about having choices, OK? Even without WIFI, if you choose, you could still use 3G to get online.
If you don't want WIFI, you don't have to use it. Why do you want to make decisions for others?
Like myself, going to kids' swim meet (competition) at Nepean Sportsplex that spans 3 hours but I only watch a few 3-minute sprints that my kids and friends participate. Why can't I use WIFI to get online during the other time?
