The Star writes about the Shaw/Rogers merger pointing to higher prices

This report in today's Toronto Star, shows how Shaw backed down from their pro-competition rhetoric last year and succumbed to the Roger's merger...this ultimately will allow the big 3 to raise prices that will directly affect the pocketbooks of all Canadians.

Without competition, Bell, Rogers and Telus have carte blanche as to how much they can charge and it is not cheap!

Here is the article, feel free to share your comments and ideas.

Here in BC, Shaw continues to run ads touting their cheaper mobile plans.

I wonder how much longer those deals will last.
