  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

  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 👀👇

  @JBMcAdams @SaskTel At our farm by Churchbridge, we are at a complete dead spot for cell service. Have to keep our landline for this reason, and StarLink is the only internet provider that actually gets a signal.

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

  @bgdoane @SaskTel Bandwidth was a problem when I was in the patch, but I haven't been in the field for 15-20 years.

  @alaylm85 @BladesHockey The Blades are a better road team, not sure why but they never do well at SaskTel Center.

  @alexmarz @SaskTel @Telesat Yes they should definitely wait, continue to use extremely slow or no internet, because using starlink hurts some troll’s feelings. Starlink has been a game changer for people who’ve never had access to real high speed internet. No one will choose to pay more $$ for Telesat.
