Until Bell decides to snuff it out. They’ll use their “legal” division (aka the CRTC) to outlaw it and no-one will squawk about it because: if you control the media, you control ‘the people’s’ voice. We live in the shittiest timeline.
Lol. It’s a crown corporation and WILDLY popular. No one will squawk? Any party would not withstanding that shit immediately because it’s popular, and then just wrap it in their party-specific words.
The LAST thing Bell wants is to draw national attention to how well a provincial offering is. The LAST thing they want is for people to see that there are alternative structures that are working for other Canadians.
I’m sure the conservatives will continue trying to figure out a way to push it to withering and crumbling… they definitely tried to sell off/privatize chunks of them in the past but the level of outrage they were met with has put those ideas to bed for the time being
Long live Sasktel.

It’s a tough fight for them because of how familiar the population is with those corps.
Lab services in Sask have bounced between private and public several times… Nobody really notices (which is sad IMO)
But SGI and SaskTel… Everyone is a client, and everyone can look over any provincial border and go “whoa, don’t wanna end up like them”.
“This part of the Crown corporation is profitable on its own, we should sell it off!”
“Why are we spending so much money to subsidize this Crown corporation!? We should sell it off!”
And then bell asks us why we’re depressed.
