Cellular Service

In December 2015, new cellular towers serving the communities of Stony Rapids and Black Lake were fully operational and residents can now enjoy the benefits of SaskTel wireless service. This $6M extension of wireless cellular service to these communities was made possible through a partnership between Sasktel, Huawei Canada (who contributed $385,000 in funding and equipment), and Athabasca Basin Development (who contributed $249,000). Wollaston Lake and Fond du Lac also received wireless service under this initiative with service being turned up in these location in September 2015.
