With the introduction of competition in the electricity market and the disbanding of Commissions across the province, Cochrane Telecom Services (CochraneTel) was formed in 2003, to continue providing telecommunications to the community. In 1994 internet was introduced to Cochrane, which has become one of our primary sources of revenue.

In 2015, CochraneTel pursued the implementation of Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), a television service offered through the same copper and fibre cables that transport all our services.
