Today SaskTel announced the launch of a small cell site in the Village of Dubuc which will improve LTE cellular services in the community and surrounding area. The new cell site is part the Government of Saskatchewan’s Wireless Saskatchewan initiative to provide rural communities with enhanced access to reliable cellular and high speed internet services.

“The installation of this tower is great news for residents in Dubuc and area.” said Warren Kaeding, MLA for Melville-Saltcoats. “I am pleased that our government was able to help provide access to reliable communications services for the community.” 

“SaskTel continues to invest in its networks, so our customers get the service they expect and need.” Doug Burnett, SaskTel President and CEO said.  “With Saskatchewan’s largest LTE network, SaskTel customers can surf, stream, and download the content they want faster than ever before and from almost anywhere in the province.”
