Award-Winning Ad Showcases Rural Alberta Gem: Métis Crossing

Big Win at the ACE Awards

MCSnet is thrilled to announce that our commercial, “Connecting the World to Northeastern Alberta,” recently won a prestigious ACE Award! This video advertisement celebrates the unique beauty and cultural richness of Métis Crossing, a premier travel destination nestled in the heart of rural Alberta.

A Collaboration Built on Connection

The partnership between MCSnet and Métis Crossing is more than just business; it’s about connecting a vibrant community with the world. We are proud to have solved the challenge of limited rural connectivity by constructing a custom fiber network that now delivers reliable, high-speed internet to Métis Crossing. 

The “Connecting the World to Northeastern Alberta” commercial beautifully illustrates how the partnership between MCSnet and Métis Crossing not only provides reliable internet access but also fosters a deeper connection between people and the rich Métis culture and stunning landscapes of rural Alberta. The commercial showcases the unique experiences and natural beauty of Métis Crossing, inspiring viewers to explore this hidden gem and create their own personal connection with this special place.

Métis Crossing Story is Brought to Life

A huge thank you to Moving Artistry Productions for taking our CMO Rhonda Lafrance’s creative vision and transforming it into the beautiful, award-winning film “Connecting the World to Northeastern Alberta.” Your exceptional talent and dedication truly brought the story of Métis Crossing to life. 

We also extend our gratitude to Métis Crossing for graciously welcoming film crews onto their property and for their invaluable assistance in creating authentic cultural experiences for us to document. Your generosity and willingness to share your rich heritage made this project truly special.
