Yep. Not sure of it’s still true recently but I know last time I looked up pricing between other carriers the prices in Sask were about $20/month lower than other provinces. Presumably this is due to Sasktel providing real competition and providing real service in rural areas.
Shitty think is they’ve kind of been limited by the Sask Party preventing them from providing services outside Saskatchewan, even if those services were profitable and bringing money into the province.
On the home internet side, Sasktel has always seems to have more consistent service, more upload bandwidth and no bandwidth limits. I even tested out some online backup systems, uploading about 20 TB/month for a few months straight and never heard anything about “excessive” usage. As far as I know they don’t do any kind of traffic monitoring or shaping on their home internet services.
They also have their own MVNO, Lüm Mobile, that can be pretty affordable for most users.
