Hi,

The shared pedestal and long cord runs are untrue in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.

For those of you who want a list of the power companies, surf here:

In Saskatchewan the majority power is produced by SaskPower. Only Saskatoon and Swift Current have "reseller" power companies, They do not generate power themselves, so far as I am aware.
