SaskTel’s Faster Internet, maxTV Stream Expands to Four More Rural Communities

SaskTel has today announced the expansion of its faster internet packages with download speeds of up to 50 Mbps, as well as maxTV Stream service to the rural communities of Burstall, Fox Valley, Richmound, and Tuxford.

With this latest expansion, SaskTel’s interNET Extended 25 and interNET Extended 50 internet packages are now available in over 340 communities province-wide.

Similarly, its maxTV Stream service, which combines the best of traditional TV with the latest over-the-top (OTT) content from Netflix and YouTube, is now available in over 380 communities across Saskatchewan.

“We take an enormous amount of pride in being Saskatchewan’s homegrown communications leader and it’s this pride that continues to drive us to deliver advanced products and services to people across the province,” said Doug Burnett, SaskTel President and CEO.

“From communities with a handful of residents to our province’s major urban centres, we’re working hard to bring faster internet speeds and the next-generation in entertainment services to as many Saskatchewan residents as possible.”

The continued expansion of interNET Extended 25 and 50 along with maxTV Stream is a part of SaskTel’s commitment to invest $324 million of capital across Saskatchewan in 2020-21 and over $1.6 billion through to 2025.
