SASKTEL CONTINUES ITS COMMITMENT TO YORKTON AND AREA

Released on June 17, 1999

Deputy Premier and Crown Investments Corporation Minister Dwain

Lingenfelter today announced more than $9 million will be invested in

SaskTel network improvements in and around Yorkton. This investment

is part of SaskTel's commitment to finance more than $100 million in

provincial network improvements this year.



"Through this year's investment, SaskTel can ensure that all customers

in Yorkton and surrounding communities receive the most dependable,

high-quality services in this province," Lingenfelter said. "For the

past 90 years, SaskTel has provided all of its customers with the best

possible telecommunications access in Saskatchewan. This year's

investment will continue SaskTel's commitment to serving this

province."



One of the projects for the Yorkton district involves a 150 km

installation of new fibre between Yorkton, Ebenezer, Canora, Sturgis

and Preeceville. This project will strengthen SaskTel's network and

ensure customers in these communities continue to receive the best

possible service. SaskTel will also upgrade equipment at the Yorkton

switch station and extend facilities eastward along Broadway Street to

serve new businesses coming to the area.



"SaskTel's ongoing commitment to our network helps us bring

leading-edge communications services such as the Internet,

SmartTouchTM features and multimedia systems to our Yorkton

customers - and other customers around the province," said Kelvin

Shepherd, SaskTel's Chief Technology Officer. "We're proud of

this achievement, and look forward to offering state-of-the art

services to Saskatchewan as we enter the next millennium."



SaskTel is the leading full service communications company in

Saskatchewan, providing voice, data, Internet, text and messaging

services over a fiber optic-based, fully digital network, as well

as cellular, paging, wireless data and FleetNet 800 service

through its SaskTel Mobility division.
