@SunshineRulez Maybe just let Sasktel be a player federally? I'm sure there's an infrastructure problem with that i'm not thinking of. We have Vidéotron here. Rogers tried to buy it out but the one Quebecker on the board pulled the rip cord and sold it to Québecor, which was weirdly his right.

@SunshineSucks SaskTel is from 1908. Govt in this country was better at (simpler) stuff back then. We should definitely have more competition and SaskTel should be allowed to be part of it. But I couldn't support a new, federally run, crown corp getting in the game. Though a stake in Bell...?

@JJ_McCullough Lmao, tell that to the former MTS (provincially owned) customers who are paying more ever since Bell took it over. Then talk to a SaskTel customer. Or just fail to explain your seemingly baseless opinion.

@KevinS55978750 @honkboy101 @amazon Are we going to sit here and debate who gets better service while they’re camping? I’m saying emergency services and banks (and so all retail pretty much) are not going to start using Koodo. Even fido runs off Rogers. And Sasktel might if you’re in Ontario or whatever.

@JJ_McCullough WDYM? What is SaskTel? Toronto’s been actively discussing a public service for some time, both to avoid outages like Rogers AND to get rid of the most expensive prices in the WORLD🌎. Research, research, research.

@JJ_McCullough I don't know if it's dumb, but my relatives in Saskatchewan pay a lot less to SASKtel for much better service. They also pay a lot less for their gov't car insurance. If we would have nationalized energy, waaay back in the 70's, we'd be like Norway..rich.... So your point?

@christoaivalis At MINIMUM a federal crown corporation to be the 4th carrier to compete and break down the monopoly. Like how SaskTel is a public utility that holds majority control of Sask market

@toon_wolf316 @patdubois Instead we would have government owned monopolies. I'm old enough to remember when the only telephone provider in Saskatchewan was SaskTel. Rates were INSANE, and didn't start to come down until competition from private companies came in.
-

@cstewartyqr @patdubois Sure, but selling SaskTel to one of the already huge monopolies isn’t going to fix the problem, as Rogers has demonstrated. Nationalizing internet & phone service, like utilities, is a good thing.

(@NicolasGagnonR1) reported
@Gaulather @That_Ethan_ Food coops, telecom coops (like in many us communities) etc. But Sasktel is based and we need to bring back a national player. The issue is also that competition is broken. We should not have only a few players. The consumer just ends up shafted.

@David_Moscrop nationalize all the infrastructure. lease out contracts for use and maintenance. create a few crown corps as well to compete. problem solved. see: SaskTel

@suestroud @ProfSmithSask @SaskTel calling as we have such a diverse population and with the looming immigration boom due to unstable conditions/situations occurring around the globe, could make for more people switching to a service provider like this. Just an idea. Thoughts? 2/2

@don92568937 @JamesCordon6 @JJ_McCullough Uh no. SaskTel prices are lower than the competition across the board - landline, wireless, Internet, television. And has a combined 1.4 million customer connections.

STV is a PR system
(@Gaulather) reported
@David_Moscrop It's a shame too because from what I hear, SaskTel is great, imagine if every province had an equivalent + the feds. So much more competition, shouldn't capitalists be down for that? Competition in the market is great! Why not break up the monopolies too?

@Coryjankoski @SaskTel I didn't buy anything except a sandwich on the way home, and fortunately I had some cash. Other than not being to call some customers during the day, I was completely unaware of the problems it caused. Sticking with my Sasktel internet and my Sasktel phone.

@SteveRickettsSP @Scribulatora Many Saskatchewanians still use our crown Sasktel for internet and phones. I don't recall experiencing an outage like Roger's had ever.

@mgeist So do you support say SaskTel? How about Telus having to become BCTel again? How about Roger's being broken up into at least provincial Crown Corporations? Just outright nationalization? Demonstrably vital infrastructure should be a public utility, then argue competition.

@JJ_McCullough We have SaskTel here in Saskatchewan and we pay like 50% less for our cell phone service than the rest of the country. How is this a bad idea?

@BOWZ6CV @SaveWildBees Depends on your definition. SaskTel's network covers at least all of southern Saskatchewan, which is pretty empty outside the cities. I get service everywhere on the Bruce Peninsula. Even got it in Parc National de Jacques-Cartier (though not on the road just outside the park).

(@cstewartyqr) reported
@Thunderhowl @patdubois I don't think it'd be worse with SaskTel being private. As a crown, they routed ALL healthcare facilities in Regina through the same switch. That switch went down, and you couldn't call EITHER of the hospitals in Regina.

@BakedGoodsYYC @mmorden @FP_Champagne You’re right but you’re missing the solution of creating a Crown Corp to complete with the oligopoly. Just expand SaskTel across Canada.

@suestroud @ProfSmithSask @SaskTel Yes, clearly not Rogers at least not solely but perhaps they use all three to maximize coverage? I think that the provinces should use their powers as leverage to create provincial service providers with great coverage & competitive prices. Perhaps even allowing for worldwide 1/2

@suestroud @ProfSmithSask @SaskTel Also the fact that service providers are not mandated to offer worldwide text by the CRTC in 2022 is absolutely criminal. The big 3 still charging $0.25/int’l SMS is deplorable considering we have some of the highest wireless plan rates in the “𝘥𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘰𝘱𝘦𝘥” world.
