  @PremierScottMoe let me guess? you want to implement digital ID to enforce it. I would cancel my sasktel in a heartbeat

  @here4fredom @realnikohouse I get 900 Mbps down and 500 Mbps up on SaskTel in Saskatchewan. I've seen DOCSIS providers offer 2Gbps down and 1Gbps up, but they don't offer publicly rout able IPs.

  🚨 SaskTel partners with Starlink to boost connectivity for rural businesses SaskTel has formed a strategic partnership with Starlink to deliver high-speed business internet services across Saskatchewan. Effective April 1, 2026, the province’s crown corporation will manage installation, equipment purchases, and billing in-house for qualifying rural businesses holding a valid GST number. This initiative directly supports small farms, mines, and forestry operations in areas where traditional fibre or broadband infrastructure remains costly and slow to deploy. Existing Starlink Business customers can switch to SaskTel billing at no charge, allowing them to consolidate services seamlessly. The move represents a meaningful advancement in closing the connectivity gap for rural Saskatchewan enterprises.

  @Acadiegirl1755 Came here from Tristin's re-post of mine! I'm a Saskabusher also...my hubby & I have been with Lüm for a few years & love it. It cut our cell bill in more than half. It isn't a fit for everyone as it depends on how you most use it (cals/text/data etc) but you can do a cost calculator on their website to figure out if it's a benefit for you. They're technically owned by Sasktel but are a separate entity. One downside - all digital, tech support is via electronic messaging with a rep (a real person just no phones or stores), but the rare issue we have is still resolved quickly & easily. I got my mom on it too, saved her a ton also.

  Please be aware that not all of these communities have been directly impacted by the fires themselves, or are currently under threat of wildfire. In some cases, SaskTel transport facility damage has led to these outages. #skoutage

  @avilewis Public ownership/partnership in the easy-to-prosper-in, we-own-the deposits oil economy, absolutely yes. But you want to shut that industry down and crash our economy. Govt.s with union workers haven't been able to run anything else at all. Maybe Sasktel/telecom is an exception.

  @alexmarz @SaskTel @Telesat That's what I expect from someone living in a city who is not using Rural internet Providers! As an IT & Cybersecurity Company that supports travel and works across Canada there is nothing as easy and that works as well as Starlink. From Africa to Canada! There are ways to secure data beyond your ISP, if people are not using that they should be. Telesat has been promising their solution for 5 years now, 4 Billion in Taxpayers money and still no testing. Amazon Leo is testing but is also US based.
