    @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.

    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.

    Starlink made deal with Sasktel,a crown corp. Sasktel will manage account and can demand service cancelled. Sounds to me like a foundation for a blackout if Sask rise up against the gov. Know this, We can still deal with Starlink direct and bypass the Crown for now. see 👀👇

    @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.

    @tmccann14 @SaskTel Hi Tanya. Thank you for the feedback. Actual speeds and coverage may vary due to the device being used, network congestion, distance from the cell site, and local conditions. Unfortunately there could be some spotty areas along highways where population is sparse as well.

    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

    @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.

    February 10th – 400 block of Bowman Crescent – ongoing – impacting approximately 190 customers. SaskTel crews are working to restore service as quickly as possible, however there is currently no estimated time of repair.
