The agreements typically cover the first five to eight years after the condo is built and see residents pay for internet through their rent or condo fees. A condo under construction is shown in Toronto's Wallace-Emerson neighbourhood, with the CN Tower visible in the background, on June 28, 2023. Rogers spokesman Cam Gordon pointed CBC News to the company's official response to Beanfield's submission, which was filed with the CRTC last October.
"They can — as Rogers does in these circumstances — seek access to build out fibre to individual units in response to customer service requests or wire the entire building at any time," she stated.
