He didn't say it, but I think that he means 802.11g hot-spot service
since that is what Starbucks offers.

I hear that some Toronto Public Libraries offer this service.  You'd
need a library card, I imagine.

They also provide wired computers but I presume that you can only run
their programs (which include a web browser).

The Linux Caffe might do the trick: http://linuxcaffe.ca/

Teksavvy supports "middle-of-nowhere-BC"?  I just assumed that they
were regional.
