  @BryceMorland1 @SaskTel @PremierScottMoe Once we got back to the cabin it was going across the television. But nothing on our phones. The cell tower gets overloaded at the lake in the summer and the service is terrible.

  @TravisIanPater2 His tweet is ignorant at best and deliberately misleading at the worst. Everyone knows the CBC is a crown corp. Nothing was "exposed" here. It would be like Sasktel, labelled a government funded utility. He acting like its some sort of "gotcha" moment when its not.

  @BShane555 @NoGunsInCanada The only thing stopping Moe from selling off Sasktel (one of the very few remaining crown corporations), is that no one wants to by a phone company with less than a million subscribers in a service area covering 650,000 sq km.

  Did they sell the Sasktel phone lists to con artists to pay down some of the debt?

  @WapWes @SaskTelSupport @SaskTel We were told we live in the middle of 2 towers, the worst spot to be! We have to run to a window if someone phones out cells phones while we are in the house. We keep our landline because cell service is so ******, we are on a farm and have wifi but that doesn’t help phone calls.

  @SaskTel Isn’t there something you can do on your end to block these obvious scam messages versus putting it on us? Other providers have tech in place to help with this.

  This is a terrible decision for Canadian privacy and internet sovereignty. @sasktel should wait for @Telesat #skpoli

  SaskTel is aware of the issue and are working on a solution. Once service has been restored, we can provide an update. We do not have an estimated time for restoration of full phone service. 2/2

  So happy Sasktel decided to do this infrastructure upgrade and shut down lanes downtown from Nov to Feb. Winter driving is miserable and slow enough as it is. Couldn't do it in the summer when everyone is on vacation and parking lots outnumber people.

  SaskTel technicians have been dispatched to resolve the outage, however, there currently is no estimated time of repair. #skoutage
