  @TKeeps @JBMcAdams I am sorry to hear you're having trouble with the coverage. Borders are difficult to cover as SaskTel faces all towers inward and cannot have our cell footprint spill across the border which can cause fringe zones where boosters may be needed for less than ideal coverage

  @EvanLSolomon Sinking billions of our tax dollars into fueling this bubble just before it pops is grossly irresponsible when you could use that money to create a national public telecom like SaskTel to give Canadians better service and pricing than what the big 3 offer.

  @DemosKratosCA SaskTel outcompetes the big telcos, and pays the profits to the government. Though I'm Albertan. I spend a lot of time in Saskatchewan, people here seem pretty satisfied with SGI and SaskPower as well, even though they are monopolies, unlike SaskTel. Government run isn't always bad, just usually.

  @GordTulk @ExnerPirot @JeffCallaway Sasktel is the reason rates are lower for cell service from any provider in Sask. Big dummy. It's single handedly pulling down costs for consumers across the country.

  10:45 PM: A planned SaskTel outage will occur on March 11, from midnight to approximately 6:00 a.m., while crews complete permanent fibre repairs related to last year’s wildfire damage. During this window, Internet, wireless, and landline (home and business) services will be unavailable across multiple Northeast Saskatchewan communities, including Sandy Bay, Brabant Lake, Geikie River, Wollaston Lake, Black Lake, Key Lake, McArthur River, Cigar Lake, Collins Bay, Stony Rapids, and Fond‑du‑Lac. This work is necessary to repair the damage and ensure the long‑term reliability of services in the area. SaskTel apologizes for any inconvenience this outage may cause and thanks customers for their patience while crews complete the work as quickly as possible. In the event of an emergency, residents in and around these communities will need to physically contact their nearest emergency services for assistance. #skoutage

  @SaskTelSupport You ought to be f&$kin embarrassed. No service for 22 hrs now?! This is not some cut line bs, this is a software issue! Think about it. YouTube still works but nothing else?!? They crashed all DNS data. Sasktel caused this, not something outside.
