Samsung internet

[Oldbroad]

What does Samsung internet give me? Here in western Canada I use Shaw.ca but I am very unhappy with them, but they appear to be the only internet service provider in our area. I will be eliminating the email address that I have with them. For now I am using Gmail, & have changed addies on some subscription services medical services etc but not all, YET! They also provide my TV content for which I am reasonably happy with the service provided, other than price but it reallyis my own fault as I have too many stations, most of which I watch quite often. All in HDTV. Thanks all for your responses. Cheers Oldbroad Angela 🇨🇦

If you are asking, is Samsung an Internet Service Provider, the answer is no. Samsung does not offer Internet Services in Canada.

In Western Canada, you can choose Telus as well. For internet service, I think Rogers and Bell as well, just not popular as Shaw and Telus.

Fingers, toes, legs, eyes and anything else I can think of 🤞🏻 that Rogers does NOT buy Shaw!! 

Canada NEEDS MORE competition, not less!!

Rogers cancelled buying Shaw?

[RedDogRabbit]

Not unless Rogers backed out of their desired merger, in the last 2 days.

I hope they don't merge too.

I couldn't agree more my friend. I'm going to look into Linus or maybe Chrome OS but as for latter will have contact to see if my Samsung Galaxy book 2 15.5 is compatible, if not Linus or the like. There has to be a provider in the west but maybe in the east or south. Thanks RDR, will just keep looking. Can't afford to buy a Chrome book unless I sell my Sony mega chager 400-disc. 🤪😅

Not Rogers. They just confirmed that buyout of Shaw. Services are going to change anytime soon.

How does the CRTC justify the merger? Canadians pay some of the highest costs for internet access, and allowing Rogers to buy Shaw, isn't going to do anything constructive for Canadian consumers... 

Effectively, Canada has 3 Internet Providers now.
