Internet: I've used teksavvy in the past and had a good experience. It's not independent infrastructure ~~(nothing is)~~ Mobile: freedom (formerly wind) has it's own network. It was acquired so isn't quite the scrappy underdog standing up to oligopoly it used to be, but it still seems like the best option. My phone prices have actually gone down over time with them
That’s simply not true. There are independent providers who do own the lines however it’s not that common around Canada. People need to stop applying black or white thinking to everything in general.
I haven't heard of any in the context of internet. Can you share any examples? If there's a way to get out of the oligopoly I'd love to learn more about it
Edit: saw beanfield in another comment. I'm happy to stand corrected!
