Milton, Newfoundland and Labrador

Milton is a designated place in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador that is a neighbourhood within the Town of George's Brook-Milton.

It was also the starting point of the cross country explored Wm Epps Cormack and his traveling companion Joseph Sylvester where they began their trek across the provinces interior in 1832.

It provides an alternative to the more southerly Hibernia Atlantic cable from Halifax or Emerald Express and is on a route that could in theory connect to Russian or Far Eastern destinations via Arctic great circles, to complete a global transocean fibre loop.
