I wonder if parts of College hts. will now get decent cell coverage.
They are planning a tower around the old Kode gravel pit.
After the improvements, will Telus cell service still be patchy 30 kms. North of P.G.? I had to switch to Rogers, with their tower near Salmon Valley, the cell signal is strong in the whole area. I found that when travelling North, I would lose the Telus signal just North of Salmon Valley, and from there onward, it was always spotty, until near Chetwynd.

Good news!
Any investments in the Telkwa – Smithers area?
