Saskatchewan’s SaskTel may become the latest Canadian telecommunications company to announce it will not use Huawei technology for its 5G network infrastructure, following in the footsteps of Bell and Telus.
“We’re going to follow suit with what Bell and Telus are doing for our 5G. We will look at other vendors, specifically Nokia and Ericsson,” Don Morgan, the minister responsible for SaskTel, told the Regina Leader-Post on June 24.
