Vancouver Park Board commissioner Trevor Loke, will introduce a notice-of-motion at the regular board meeting tonight asking the city to monitor the possibility of providing free Wi-Fi at public parks.
"There are times where the only place I can get Wi-Fi is at a local coffee shop, and I don't think that there is anything wrong with someone working on their computer or reading a book on their Kindle in a park," said Trevor.
Loke also highlighted that free Wi-Fi would further enhance an individual's experience of public places.
"I also think that there's no reason two people can't go to a park and have a business meeting and connect to their Wi-Fi while enjoying nature," Loke told media.
