@CoreyBenbow Yep. Seems we're a Telus household now, but I'm not under any illusion that they're going to make us any happier--they'll undoubtedly find a way to let us down in due course. The industry definitely needs new players, plus maybe a SaskTel-esque crown corp too for good measure

@SweetSpotRD @RogersHelps @SaskTelSupport Yeah, Shaw Mobile is really iffy everywhere outside of cities in Alberta, I’ve found. Honestly, everyone seems to have trouble other than Sasktel in Saskatchewan.

@SteveRickettsSP @Scribulatora Many Saskatchewanians still use our crown Sasktel for internet and phones. I don't recall experiencing an outage like Roger's had ever.

@Thunderhowl @patdubois I don't think it'd be worse with SaskTel being private. As a crown, they routed ALL healthcare facilities in Regina through the same switch. That switch went down, and you couldn't call EITHER of the hospitals in Regina.

STV is a PR system

@David_Moscrop It's a shame too because from what I hear, SaskTel is great, imagine if every province had an equivalent + the feds. So much more competition, shouldn't capitalists be down for that? Competition in the market is great! Why not break up the monopolies too?

@David_Moscrop Public provision along the lines of SaskTel seems more interesting, but I don't think we should assume that crown corporations are immune from software upgrade problems.

@Gaulather @That_Ethan_ Food coops, telecom coops (like in many us communities) etc. But Sasktel is based and we need to bring back a national player. The issue is also that competition is broken. We should not have only a few players. The consumer just ends up shafted.

@JJ_McCullough We have SaskTel here in Saskatchewan and we pay like 50% less for our cell phone service than the rest of the country. How is this a bad idea?

@David_Moscrop Had a look at Sasktel plans and they are on par with the national avg. No money savings that Canadians deserve. Their custimer service might be marginally better if you are someone who constantly requires it. They likely treat employees a bit better. Sasktel isn't the apex

@JJ_McCullough I don't know if it's dumb, but my relatives in Saskatchewan pay a lot less to SASKtel for much better service. They also pay a lot less for their gov't car insurance. If we would have nationalized energy, waaay back in the 70's, we'd be like Norway..rich.... So your point?

@BakedGoodsYYC @mmorden @FP_Champagne You’re right but you’re missing the solution of creating a Crown Corp to complete with the oligopoly. Just expand SaskTel across Canada.

Most of Canada has two main wireline network options - the traditional telco (Bell, Telus, SaskTel) and the cableco (Rogers, Shaw, Videotron). Building a third wireline network to compete with that across the country doesn't make financial sense.

@1Cushion1 @MondoAlberta @PierrePoilievre Sasktel goes down a lot and you forget they are still on 2nd Gen 4g with the slowest speeds in Canada for wireless.

@kurtstoll_CAN @MPAVictoria Sorry, you know the telecoms collude HOW? And SaskTel is a provincial utility and NOT something that could be expanded to the rest of Canada. And I would be interested in seeing SaskTel's books, to see how much taxpayer money is being poured in to keep rates down.
