Time to switch from Telus
Considering this heavily.
The support the smaller players get the more competitive the market becomes
Quebecor Inc. is a “smaller player”?
I guess Videotron and Freedom are relatively smaller, but Quebecor is a behemoth.
It owns:
Fair enough. Even so though, consider their respective revenues:
So less than a third of second-last place. In relative terms, that's a lot smaller.
Informative, still very small compared to Telus who's now entering healthcare and farming among other things.
Telus has been digging their greasy fingers into healthcare - specifically government-funded, for-profit healthcare - for about a decade now.
Did you know they did the report that said Alberta is owed half of the CPP?
I've been with them since they were called Wind. Always been satisfied, but since they merged with Videotron my experience with them has gotten even better.
Do it. If it sucks too hard, Telus will give you a win-back plan off the books. I've been on Freedom since around 2010 in Ontario. Their network has always been worse than ROBeLUS but boy does it feel good to not be paying the oligopoly.
