Hello I live in northern Manitoba to be exact Flin Flon I would like to know if you service that area as I live out at the lake as well? I have to rely on star link for wifi which has not been a problem using Bell as my provider. Could you tell me if it would be an option to get a phone plan with you?

using the Telus coverage map, one can see 4G/LTE coverage on Hwy 10 from north of Flin Flon all the way south past The Pas and further. The only fly in the ointment MIGHT be that OP might need a VoLTE recognized cellphone. I'm unsure on 3G re-farming plans in the north MB areas.

Public Mobile (which is a 3rd tier carrier of Telus Mobility) has full access to SaskTel towers in Saskatchewan, and Bell/Telus towers in Manitoba (mostly...)... As such you should have great coverage in Flin Flon with Public Mobile.

If you check this tower map from public CRTC tower map data, we can see there is a Rogers and Bell tower right in town, and a SaskTel tower to the SW at Denare Beach.

While Telus Mobility customers can Roam on Rogers in Manitoba, according to the Public Mobile coverage map, it looks like that privilege is available for Public Mobile customers as well, even though the towers on the previous link indicate they are owned by Rogers... https://www.publicmobile.ca/en/coverage

Maybe someone from Manitoba can comment on the rural/highway coverage...

 You will be limited to 3G and 4G/LTE according to the PM coverage map.

You might consider Telus or Koodo so you can connect to wifi calling as you are limited to 1900 Mhz 3G for calling or using VoLTE. Work around is to use WhatsApp or TextNow for calling on PM.
