  @caiobchi @cmaconthehill @CityNewsKIT Videotron competition lowered prices in Quebec. Much like MTS + Sasktel did in MB / SK. Competition for the big 3. Videotron has service outside of QC, in Ottawa, same prices as QC. The big 3 and their flanker brands would not match prices of Videotron in Ottawa. We switched.

  @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.

  ~25 minutes ago, the Internet went down for me here; no info from @sasktel/@SaskTelSupport as to what occurred. It seems to be back now, so I'll attempt to start at 9:50 p.m. MDT. Sorry. 😑🙏🏻🎶

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Had to do the same thing with Sasktel a couple years ago. **** service and sky high prices - gouging for all their products - not sure why people continue to patronize them! Telus has been good to me but I am keeping a close watch on them as they silently creep their prices up

  On March 25, 2026 - Crews will be completing scheduled maintenance on the satellite network that supports SaskTel Landline Phone services (Home Phone and Business Phone) in Kinoosao. The outage is expected to last approximately 8 hours. The exact timing of the service interruption cannot be confirmed in advance. During the outage, residents who require emergency assistance should physically contact another person for help or visit your nearest health clinic or RCMP detachment. SaskTel apologizes for any inconvenience this service interruption may cause and thanks customers for their patience while the work is completed. #skoutage

  @ExnerPirot I'll fill you on this Heather. I've been a Sasktel customer for my Home, Business, internet and cell phone FOREVER. I've never once tried to price out other companies WHY? My kids, and other close relatives constantly are jumping for one company to another and constantly complain about service prices etc etc when they leave. I've never had an issue with Sasktel that caused me reason to leave. Customer service still counts as first priority for many people.

  And all 3 also operate under their own names So you got a total of 9 different carriers, but in reality it's actually 3 Videotron, Freedom, and Sasktel are the only independent cell providers in Canada There was MTS (Manitoba Telecom Service) but Bell took them over in 2017

  @alexmarz @SaskTel It would be a dumb move. If I switch to a free email, there's no reason to stay with SaskTel. I can take a 'new customer' deal from any ISP.

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