I’ve been with Teksavvy for nearly 15 years. This is a sad, sad day.

Oh shit, not good. They’ve been the one bright spot in a sea of ISP bleakness.

I’ve been with them for nearly 10 years now. Stuck with them out of principle even though the speed/price weren’t as good as I could get elsewhere.

This seriously sucks, I’m so tired of a small handful of corporations owning every aspect of my life.

I was with TekSavvy for a long time but they were getting worse. I Switched to Oxio https://oxio.ca which is cheaper and faster than TS was. It’s a brand for Cogeco.

Why the fuck does the government keep allowing competition to be snapped up by the big 3???

Rhetorical question i guess… But wtf. Do your job… Where are the antitrust regulations in this country? I am not a lawyer

Canada loves it’s monopolies. I can’t believe that Shaw deal went through – the government literally will not allow us to have more than 3 telecommunications companies. It’s ridiculous.

Canada was literally, actually, no shit created by corporations for the purpose of facilitating the extraction of value from human and natural resources by corporations. It genuinely exists to exploit us.

For context, remember that the Competition Bureau tried to block the Rogers-Shaw merger and was overridden by the courts. So continuing consolidation is a problem that won’t be fixed easily.
