Westman Communications Group Expands Connect GIG Internet Speeds In Oak River And Minnedosa

Westman Communications Group (WCG), a member-owned cooperative providing high-quality telecommunication services to communities throughout Manitoba, has recently upgraded the area of Oak River and Minnedosa with Connect 2.5 Gig Internet services. The plan offers a download speed of up to 2500 Mbps and an upload speed of up to 150 Mbps. Connect Gig services deliver internet speeds that members need for the modern era of communication. 

“We have worked incredibly hard to ensure that our services meet and exceed member expectations,” said E.J. Keys, President and CEO of WCG. “Expanding Gigabit speeds is an opportunity for us to continue to innovate and improve, as well as to provide local support to rural communities.”   

WCG is an industry leader in communications services, offering High-Speed Internet, IPTV, and Home Phone services to communities throughout the Westman region. By leveraging fibre-powered connections, WCG can provide speeds typically unavailable to those who do not have pure fibre-connected households. Now, existing coaxial cables that are currently in most households can reach similar speeds. Through this technological advancement, more members can experience speeds typically reserved for urban centres.    

“As a communications-focused cooperative, innovation is a key pillar of WCG,” said Brandi Crowe, Marketing Manager of WCG. “We have been actively upgrading our networks across Manitoba, allowing us to bring Gig speeds to hybrid-fibre communities. We will continue our work to get more of our communities up to speed throughout 2026 for residences and businesses.”
