“Every Canadian with a mobile plan is protected by the Wireless Code. It explains your consumer rights and the rules your provider must follow. We created the Code to make it easier for you to: • understand your mobile plan • change providers • prevent bill shock • return your cellphone if you are unhappy with your service • and more!”

“Mobile Wireless Trends: […] Using the previous (2019) basket definitions, the highest basket (L5 at 10-49 GB) was the only level to see a price increase in 2020 over 2019. Baskets 1 to 4 all fell substantially, respectively by 19%, 27%, 28% and 23%. The Level 5 basket increased by almost 11%.”

“The Liberal government is giving Canada’s big three national wireless providers two years to cut their basic prices for cellphone services by 25 per cent — and telling them it will step in to cut prices if they don’t comply. Innovation, Science and Industry Minister Navdeep Bains issued the ultimatum today along with new spectrum auction rules that could open up Canada’s wireless market to new competition.”

“Le gouvernement fédéral remplit sa promesse électorale de réduire d’au moins 25 % les forfaits de téléphonie cellulaire. Pour y parvenir, Ottawa menacera les grands fournisseurs d’accroître la concurrence dans l’industrie s’ils n’acceptent pas de diminuer leurs prix d’ici deux ans. Selon le ministre de l’Innovation, Navdeep Bains, Bell, Rogers et Telus doivent tous trois réduire les prix des forfaits dits de milieu de gamme, des forfaits qui comprennent un volume de données allant de deux à six gigaoctets par mois.”
