Maham Fahim and Michael Konieczny from our Primary team in Saskatoon recently presented a cheque in the amount of $1,500 to STARS in Saskatoon. STARS is a non-profit organization committed to provide life-saving services in Western Canada. Every day, STARS takes care of some of the most critical patients and their success has been grounded in community partnerships and donations. Primary is proud to help support a great service.

While our crew was out digging a pit in Banff in early February they came across a Large Bison Skull. Click on the link to read the full story. https://www.fortisalberta.com//streetlight-project-unearth

Congratulations to our team at Primary! The federal government made a multi-million dollar funding announcement yesterday: Ottawa is putting up $11.2 million to support FlexNetworks in bringing high-speed internet access to 21 communities between Regina and Saskatoon. FlexNetworks is contributing a further $3.7 million, for a combined cost of $14.9 million, on what has been dubbed: Project 573. Ralph Goodale, public safety and emergency preparedness minister, said high-speed ...internet access will level the playing fieldIt’s not a frill, it’s a necessity. And it’s a necessity not only in urban centres but in rural and remote communities too It’s a question of equal opportunity. Goodale said internet access will help market businesses, allow people to work from home and give people access to online emergency services. Essential infrastructure, in this day and age, includes not only streets and highways and transit and water systems and affordable housing. It also includes access to reliable, affordable high-speed internet service. The project is part of the federal government’s Connect to Innovate program that aims to bring 90 per cent of Canadian households online by 2021, 95 per cent by 2026 and full coverage to remote areas by 2030. Last year, the federal government committed to bringing high-speed internet access to 30 communities northeast of Prince Albert. Some communities already have access and the majority of work is expected to be completed before the winter of 2019.The infrastructure between Regina and Saskatoon is expected to be up and running by December 2021. Once it’s complete, FlexNetworks has the option to lease out the network to other internet providers such as SaskTel. The company can also act as its own provider. Primary Engineering and Construction is delighted to have been selected by BH Telecom/FlexNetworks, to provide design, permit, and support services for Project 573, on the back of our success on the Prince Albert to Saskatoon build, known as Project 575. We look forward to further building upon the relationships forged with BH Telecom, as well as with their construction partner, RyKo.
