Hudson's Bay Company remembers
IIRC they owned most of not all of the land from Hudson's Bay down to, if not including central Ontario, Toronto & Ottawa etc
One would think, except politics is a farce these days, both sides of the coin are corrupt as hell. Pierre Trudeau probably rolling in his grave
Still worth switching since they will lick your boots and ignore and fuck over us loyal customers
Get yourself onto one of those competitive contracts before it's too late, chances are prices will go up if this means the last of the independent wholesalers is gone
CRTC screwed them but they treat their loyal customers EXACTLY like the big three. They fuck us.
Right now new customers can save $400 a year compared to what I was paying for what most consider slow internet (40mbps down and 10 up). There was also an ACT NOW BEFORE ITS TOO LATE offer when I checked, less than two days left to snag a 100mbps plan for the price of a 40mbps one.
Literally no incentive to stay with a provider and be loyal, and all the incentive to hop around or threaten to hop around so that you get these secret special plans that they only pull out as a last resort
All of that combined with the extreme toxicity and ignorance on social media, I'm personally prepared to go dark and just use public wifi. All I need is a way to torrent and I'm golden lol.
You can't really put your money where your mouth is if everything is extremely interconnected these days, and there just aren't any options. I'm sick and tired of Canadian oligopolies
North American politics are shit. Pretty soon it will be over a century since politicians sell off or give away control of their assets to avoid conflicts of interest
Oh man you missed them in their glory days. They would pressure the big three, prices were lowered, and they gave that back to us customers. They emailed us telling our plans were getting cheaper, faster, or both!
Now they're just the diet coke of the big three. They offer the same crap that all the other ones do - nothing for loyal customers but like over $400 off for newer customers, limited time offers for even faster and cheaper plans...
It's all shit. You hop from service to service, or you tell them you're going to do that and all of a sudden they offer you amazing plans to get you to stay.
Teksavvy will literally throttle your speeds if you're late on your bill, without warning, days before they initially told you they were going to cut you off. This ruined my plans to download a few things before I was stuck offline. This forced me to use up all of my full speed mobile data (another thing that most developed countries don't have and scoff at, data caps). Then you gotta argue with them to NOT have to pay for services that were not provided/withheld.
Basically the life of an IT admin in a nutshell
I'm also concerned with the reports, or that one documentary by that conservative dude who's got some incredibly distasteful opinions on other things so no one would even give the video a watch.
Some people getting a "safe supply" of up to 40 "dollies" per day, and then they'd just go and sell those to get the hard stuff. With the dollies even finding their way into public schools.
It's a good idea, but it shouldn't be a long term solution, it should be for weening people off and giving them safe places to use. It needs to be paired with giving a shit all across the board, getting these people into good housing, social services, jobs if possible.
Wait so the US is lying to you because they're financially supporting Ukraine & with weapons, while they're being fucking invaded, because Poland (an independent nation) decides to send ground troops into Russia (maybe to slow down the invasion of Ukraine???)
Seems to me like you're operating under the assumption that the United States of America runs the entire world. They don't.
I've been with teksavvy for at least a decade and I'm not too happy to see new customers can save like $400 a year compared to me
