Everyone must switch to Sasktel, Freedom, TBayTel, Sogetel, Ice, Cogeco, Videotron and Eastlink.
Also Teksavvy!
Any plan that starts with "If everyone can just..." is doomed to fail. This needs legislation and at least the threat of nationalisation if not the act.
Been on Sasktel all my life, started getting more actively involved in politics when Wall wanted to sell 49% (or 51% I don’t remember) of Sasktel as a trial run or whatever the heck he called it.
I don't see how 51% could be a trial of anything as they'd lose control. 49% you could see how pressure from investors harms the company though and could painfully be walked back from. Terrible idea though.
They were considering selling 49%, but the percentage is meaningless without looking at the articles, the bylaws, and resolutions. A lot of corporations make things more strict than the Bus Corp. act. You can always make things more strict, you can't make them more lax.
In fact, some things require a "Special Resolution" which is 2/3rds.
BUT, that can mean 2/3 of the shareholders who show up, as long as enough people show up to make a quorum.
And a quorum can be as small as 1 person, again, depending on the Articles, bylaws, and resolutions.
If you feel like learning about the Saskatchewan Business Corporations act, here is it:

Been on Freedom since 2010. Fuck ROBeLUS.
