  Have any of the ISP like Bell or telus spoken against c-22? Or are they onboard with the digital tyranny? Asking because I am going to outright cancel my entire service and go with an VOIP home phone and smoke signals for encryption

  @BCLionsDen @DarshanVancity @Rogers I've been with Telus forever. On jobsites out of town people recommend Rogers. Too many dead spots. Also cable and internet was horrible with Telus. Connection wasn't strong enough to watch TV with glitching out. Telus support is no help, they'll try to cover the problem.

  $ASTS --- Japan’s government plans to issue up to ¥1.48 trillion (approximately $912 million) in large-scale public subsidies for a satellite communications project led by Rakuten. Rakuten is a core early investor and strategic partner of ASTS. The two firms are advancing a joint venture (JV) in Japan to secure full regulatory approvals for commercial direct-to-device (D2D) operations. This government subsidy effectively covers ASTS’s Asia network deployment costs head-on, drastically easing market concerns over the company’s cash burn trajectory. The firm successfully launched BlueBirds 8, 9 and 10 in mid-June 2026, and all three satellites are operating smoothly in orbit. Shortly after, ASTS officially announced plans to deploy BlueBirds 11, 12 and 13 in early August 2026. Why the August Launch Matters This batch will carry ultra-large antenna arrays spanning 2,400 square feet. ASTS previously hit a peak download speed of 98.9 Mbps on unmodified consumer smartphones via satellite connectivity; the new August satellites are projected to double this maximum throughput. 1. The World’s First Truly Gap-Free Cellular Network Legacy satellite communications systems including Iridium and early Starlink require custom antennas, ground terminals or dedicated satellite handsets. $ASTS ’s proprietary technology enables billions of existing unmodified 4G/5G smartphones worldwide to connect directly to orbital satellites. The innovation instantly erases all terrestrial coverage dead zones across oceans, deserts and mountainous terrain. 2. Landlord-Style Model Locked In With Global Telecom Giants $ASTS does not compete for end users against carriers like T-Mobile, AT&T and Verizon — instead, it acts as their critical infrastructure ally. The company has executed binding commercial agreements with top-tier global operators: AT&T, Verizon, Japan’s Rakuten, Canada’s Telus and more. These carriers willingly share revenue with ASTS to deliver seamless connectivity to subscribers operating in off-grid regions. This business model pushes customer acquisition costs (CAC) nearly to zero, and will generate massive high-margin recurring cash flow once the full satellite constellation is operational. 3. Ample Cash Runway to Alleviate Cash-Burn Skepticism As of the latest quarterly filing, the company holds $3.5 billion in cash on its balance sheet versus only around $2.9 billion in long-term debt. This robust liquidity provides unconstrained capital to ramp launch contracts and satellite manufacturing through 2026–2027, eliminating near-term risks of dilutive equity offerings or distressed asset sales. Management’s official guidance pins full-year 2026 revenue between $150 million and $200 million, with revenue poised to approach $1 billion in 2027 as the network activates commercially.

  @VanRothnRoll @HoneycutRa @TWilsonOttawa No but I hear from lots (including people in Northern Ontario) that they can't stand the GTA. I'd like to go some day and hang out at the Mervish. My wife went once (for business) and refuses to go back, even though she saw a Jays game from the Telus private box.

  @MatchsticksCGY Last year Rogers forced the Flames into the middle of a legal battle against Telus and then they pull this ****. I hope the lawyers are sending the most professional sounding **** yous they have ever written.

  @MapleLeafs @Rogers Ya thanks for the heads up on the news radio cancellation! How can you justify that when you are literally robbing us for tv and phone services. Canceling my cell service as soon as the contract expires. Heading over to @TELUS

  @jodyvance @TELUS It's trouble when it's trouble. Customer service requires weeks now somehow.
