Tucked into the bottom:

TekSavvy, which was also looking for a seller earlier this year, says it's "not currently for sale."

That is awesome news. I was considering switching to them back when Telus bought Start, but decided against it since I heard they were looking to sell as well. If that's no longer the case I will give them another look.

I'm a current customer, was hoping to remain so for the foreseeable future, so this is indeed great news!

I've long argued that it should be illegal for incumbents to sell retail connections for less than wholesale prices, but here we are

If our anti-trust had teeth this would be the case. At the current rate Teksavy can only survive on principaled users sadly.

The ISP argues the interim wholesale rates are, in some cases, higher than retail prices Bell and Telus charge customers.
