  Release the files (@BlackBlazeE) reported 12 minutes ago

  Due to issues with @ShawInfo 's internet service, today's raid on the DOJ stream will be canceled unless something drastically changes. We here at the Black Blaze Collective assume that either the @TheJusticeDept is once again trying to stop us, or that Rogers/Shaw also defends pedos. The most likely case is sheer incompetence given what we know about the structure within Rogers/Shaw, but our narrative sounds better. Indoctrination broadcasts will resume ASAP.

  Hello, @Shawhelp @Rogers - have been trying to get through to customer service for several days now. Can be in chat for several hours and all it says is “We are currently experiencing a delayed response. Please wait.” The customer service has tanked. Together with Shaw?

  @Shawhelp It took a few minutes to get back. I checked the HDMI connection, the WiFi signal which was fine & turned the TV off & on again

  The service from @Shawhelp has gone downhill since @Rogers took over. Tired of the increasing costs, and poor service. Constantly dealing with “connection issues” on my TV. Long wait times for assistance from @RogersHelps and no help. UGH. What are the alternatives out there?!

  @Shawhelp I don’t know how many times this is over the years but you cannot let your simulcast/overide stuff come on when live sports are on. Missing the end of #zags on @KHQLocalNews cuz you guys are screw ups & @CRTCeng never punishes you for it. 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

  lmao I switched my internet to my husband's name with @Rogers slash @ShawInfo and the nice man at the store said I had to call to cancel my current internet, can't do it in store, so I've called every day since Saturday and waited more than an hour on hold without getting thru

  @Shawhelp Yes, the new TV box (#2) is running, however, without a cable, the signal sometimes cuts out - the Internet might be down or slow for a nanosecond. Our WiFi shows as being strong.

  @Shawhelp Now that there's no cable anymore, is the TV signal going to cut out whenever - like now? Our WiFi was fine.

  @Shawhelp Thanks for asking. My wifi is good. But i have barely got 1 line on network (vertical), and sometimes in the other end of my house, i can’t download or upload and call drops. I was hoping to change something there to make it better.

  @RogersHelps @Rogers @Shawinfo August 2026... and they're still playing the wrong version!!! On top of that Canadians couldn't watch the Hlinka Gretzky Cup Gold Medal Hockey Game on Saturday without buying a special package, regular cable didn't carry it! How pathetic is that! And channel 159 still SUCKS!!!
