What a Good Connection Actually Gets You

Dependable internet is not a luxury anymore. It is family movie night streaming without the spinning wheel, the kids gaming with friends two provinces over, a video call to a child working away, and a rural business reaching customers anywhere. It is a full house of phones, TVs, laptops, and cameras all running at once without anyone shouting to get off the internet.

MCSnet is built to carry all of it. Check what reaches your address and we will show you the speeds available where you live, then help you match them to how your household actually uses the internet.

A Norwegian Namesake, 121 Kilometres East of Edmonton

Viking was founded in 1909 by Norwegian settlers Sivert Hafso and Ole Sorenson, became a village that same year, and grew into a town in 1952, celebrating its centennial in 2009. Highway 14 and Highway 36 cross here, CN Railway runs through, and Via Rail’s “The Canadian” still makes a flag stop. That Scandinavian heritage shows up around town at Troll Park, and Viking won the national Communities in Bloom competition in 2000.

MCSnet’s fixed wireless network reaches the town of 986 people and the farms around it, so a Norwegian settlement on the prairie gets internet built for how people actually use it today.

Home of the Sutters

Six brothers from a Viking-area farm family, Brian, Darryl, Duane, Rich, Ron, and Brent Sutter, all reached the NHL between the 1970s and 1980s, playing nearly 5,000 games combined and winning the Stanley Cup six times as players, plus a seventh as a head coach when Darryl led the Los Angeles Kings. A second generation, Brandon Sutter and cousin Brett Sutter, carried the family name into the NHL as well, and Sutter family jerseys hang at the Viking Carena Complex, the town’s NHL-sized rink with seating for 800.

That is the kind of small town Viking is: one that produces hockey players by the half-dozen and still fills the rink on a Tuesday night. Reliable internet matters here too, from streaming the game to running the family farm.

The Viking Ribstones

About 18 kilometres southeast of town, atop a hill, sit two large quartzite boulders carved by Indigenous peoples in the prehistoric past into the shape of a buffalo’s rib cage. The Viking Ribstones are regarded as a sacred site honouring “Old Man Buffalo,” the spiritual protector of the bison herd. Local Indigenous people have historically left offerings of sweetgrass, tobacco, and coins there before and after hunts, and First Nations people continue to visit and leave offerings today. The site is designated a provincial historical resource, and it is treated with the same respect here: not a roadside curiosity, but a place that remains meaningful and actively used.

Free Public Wi-Fi, On Us

MCSnet provides free public Wi-Fi at the places where Viking gathers: the Viking Curling Club, Legion Branch 81, the Agriculture Society, the Golf Course, the Historical Society, the United Church, and the Senior Citizens Club. It is part of how we give back to the communities we connect, and you can see the full list on our hotspot partnerships page.
