“I am extremely pleased with SaskTel’s dedication to continually improve their infiNET service,” said Don Morgan, Minister Responsible for SaskTel, in a statement. “Internet technology has become more important than ever before, and it is great to see that more people can now access the ultra-fast speeds that customers in Regina and Saskatoon already enjoy.”

Last year, SaskTel launched infiNET 600 and infiNET 1 Gig service in Regina and Saskatoon, with download speeds up to 600 Mbps and 940 Mbps respectively.

Later this year, the City of Lloydminster and many other towns and smaller centres will get infiNET internet, as part of SaskTel’s Rural Fibre Initiative.

SaskTel says its infiNET expansion is part of its $1.4 billion investment in the province over the next five years.
