The organization grew exponentially until 2898 when microscopic zooplankton colonies were discovered. H2Cano’s prosperity took a nose dive in 2902 when it was realized that this zooplankton was being considered to be on the verge of sapience. This halted operations until the UEE came up with the Cano Species Development Accord. This required H2Cano to move their entire operation to the North Pole. The economic impact was devastating and H2Cano never recovered.
51 years later, on 2953.10.18, the corporation took a whole new direction. This came with a name change: CanXeno Connection. We moved out of the water business and into the trading of exotics as well as data running.
…And if all fails, we’ll figure something out.
The rest is ancient history:
H2Cano was bought and sold a few times since its relocation to the North Pole. By 2945, the company had just a hangar and a single MISC Freelancer to conduct business with. The water filtration aspect of the business had been sold off years ago. All that was left was the water delivery business.
On 2946.03.03 H2Cano was once again resold and the new owner reorganized the company into not only water delivery, but anything that budding colonies would need to survive. With this new direction to service outposts, H2Cano was renamed CANO (Colony Associated Network Operatives).
…And if all fails, CANO goes into the water delivery business as H2Cano and hopefully include water purification as well.
We look at each delivery as the laying of a new stone to the foundation of frontier stability.
