Hey @Wakka 1971 

That is a great question! Bell remains committed to supporting Satellite TV for the foreseeable future.

Have a nice weekend 🙂

Just worried like you guys will say well we’re taking it offline in 1to two year and satalite only way for me to watch tv , as shaw direct is only other provider in my area. As starlink only internet provider don’t want to get screwed

I understand your comment. There is a lot of Canadian geography that will never be serviced by fibre. Satellite is the only option.

I know only other that sat is fine app , or Shaw direct and bell only option . Problem with sat net is starlink but not wired it around the earth but not end of the world
