President's Message

As a longtime resident of Northern Ontario, I know intimately how vast our region is. With many communities separated by thousands of kilometres of roads that are sometimes impassable, delivering efficient communication solutions to all citizens of our region can be a difficult task. TBayTel is up to the challenge. We have a remarkable history of quality service, innovation and expansion – in the city, and throughout the region.

TBayTel's technical capabilities, infrastructure and commitment to the North are robust. We have the region’s largest digital cellular coverage and extensive products and services – data, voice, wireless – that make it possible for residents of northern communities to be in global contact despite geographic and climatic barriers. TBayTel unites the people of Northern Ontario to each other and to the world.

For over 100 years TBayTel has been a sturdy and dependable economic engine, yielding significant results for customers, company, community and region. Through agile and focused business decisions that anticipate customer needs, we constantly strive to increase value for our stakeholders. TBayTel has, for many years, thrived in an aggressive marketplace and continues to offer competitive telecom solutions for businesses and homes.

TBayTel is a vital contributor to the quality of life and the infrastructure of our city and of Northern Ontario. We believe that vibrant strong communities benefit everyone: last year alone TBayTel supported almost 100 community events throughout the region. I can say with genuineness and pride that TBayTel really is the #1 Communications Solutions Provider in Northern Ontario.
