  @MarioNawfal Ontario government: Industry dominance — Groceries: Top 4-5 chains control ~72-80% market share, fueling high food prices (up 30% in 5 years, highest G7 food inflation). Telecom: Big Three (Bell/Rogers/Telus) hold 80-90% wireless market, high bills. Car insurance: Elevated rates in many provinces. • Real estate — Foreign buyer ban extended to Jan 2027, but past offshore/domestic investor activity inflated prices; housing remains unaffordable. • Private colleges — “Diploma mills” exploit international students with misleading promises, poor quality; crackdowns ongoing amid permit caps. • Tax overload — Paycheque deductions, GST/HST on buys, property taxes, embedded in utilities/fuel/bills, plus annual filings — heavy multi-level burden. Other pressures: Soaring cost of living (groceries/utilities/housing), long healthcare waits, big bank fees, productivity stagnation, wage insecurity despite data debates.

  Telus doesnt hire a single Canadian customer care representative and they only operate in Canada. They profit 1.3b per year. That 1.3b could be used to employ roughly 30,000 Canadians full time for 40,000 a year, roughly another 3,000 if they fired the international employees.

  $ASTS is setting up for an aggressive breakout. The technicals and options flows are aligning perfectly with massive fundamental execution. I am tracking a textbook bounce off the $60 support level, and the VEX heat map shows a magnetic pull toward the $75 and $80 strikes for September OpEx. ​The fundamental conviction ​Accelerated Deployment: Six BlueBird satellites were launched in just 50 days, expanding the in-orbit network to 13 spacecraft. ​Revenue Execution: Second-quarter revenues hit $31.5 million, and management reiterated full-year 2026 guidance of $150 million to $200 million. ​Massive Backlog: Aggregate contracted revenue agreements and U.S. government awards now sit at approximately $1.3 billion. ​Capital Secured: The company holds more than $3.7 billion in cash and equivalents following a July convertible note offering. This fully funds the target of approximately 45 satellites in orbit by early 2027. ​Tier-1 Validation: Deep infrastructure and equity partnerships with telecom giants like TELUS, AT&T, and Verizon lock in the path to commercial activation. ​The early speculative phase is over. With satellite deployment accelerating and funding secured, market makers will be forced to dynamically hedge this upward momentum. The path of least resistance is higher. Let's go🚀

  @govt_corrupt Signed up to new internet provider after Rogers made Shaw turn to **** and it was included in the price. They're just giving cable away now (really it's just a Telus locked android box and "cable" and internet are the same physical wire and digital signals now anyway, it's all the same now) But if it cost anything we wouldn't have gotten it.

  @MurrayManera @EPCOR @TELUS 311 won't do ****. My opinion is merely based on years of direct experience.

  @TELUS Nobody gave me an asset calling, and the support team in the app is really slow, I did had an answer but I’m not happy with the service attention.

  I've been trying to cancel my @TELUSsupport @TELUS services since Wednesday. I just got told they couldn't authenticate me, with my name & account number. I guess when you make it impossible to cancel, you figure we'll just keep paying, so it doesnt impact our credit.

  @NicoletteFuller @Rogers My mom had Telus for a bit had the same sort of issue. Think she went to telus and talked to them about going to the US go visit me, i will ask her and let you know. Her bill wasn't much if anything due to wifi everywhere
