The move comes in response to allegations that the pacts violate the Telecommunications Act and could stifle competition through price discrimination
Canada’s telecom regulator has asked Rogers Communications Inc. to disclose the details of its network sharing agreements with Quebecor Inc.’s Videotron as part of its takeover of Shaw Communications Inc., in response to allegations that the agreements violate the Telecommunications Act and could stifle competition through price discrimination.
It is unclear whether Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne will consider the CRTC’s review as part of his approval of the transfer of spectrum from Rogers to Videotron. Mr. Champagne’s approval is the last hurdle standing in the way of closing the deal.
