Monopolies like the one we have here kill competition and make life hell for the consumer. Even as a proud liberal voter I can say that in confidence.

Completely and utterly outragous this monopoly has been permitted to exist, thrive, in Canada, in 2015. Shameful.

We need more Internet, cable, phone service options in the Yukon, we should have the same options as the rest of Canada.

Northwestel has been monopolizing the market without providing any enhancements... Get more competition so that the consumer can actually have some benefit; either lower costs or better services!

Northwestel has ripped off Northerners for years. Time for much needed competition

I have been in whitehorse over five years and using my internet the same than before or maybe a little bit more. I had 80gb and never were close to pass this and since i am in town i had to upgraded twice. Now i am at 300gb and closed to go over ?? This is stupid, they are playing with us for sure .... We need another company and lower price... Internet is actually free by satellite, we should not even pay or pay minimal for it....

I am a former Yukoner and the Northwestel monopoly is a very unattractive feature of moving back home.

Competition would be healthy against a Corporate Giant.

Northwestel is a horrible company. The email bills and usage notices came in late constantly causing me to lose track of my usage and billing. I shouldn't have to set up my own data cut off point. I should be able to just ask them to do it.

It's ridiculous! We shouldn't have to pay premium prices for sub par product and services.

Hope there are more cable/internet providers here in yukon so we have a choice on some plans and lower prices of subscription. And i don't get it, why do northwestel have a unlimited usage of data in residential? It's kinda unfair, unlike in other provinces.
