The article says Rogers needs "to deliver long-term value for [their] customers, shareholders and Canada." Are you frickin' kidding me? What a friggin' liar and idiot Natale is, as is each and every Rogers shareholder.

No wonder my Rogers wireless bill went up by $11 (eleven dollars!) this month. Good God Almighty... greedy friggin' morons.

Lots of reasons to dislike Rogers/Bell/Telus, but buying spectrum is absolutely core to their businesses.

And the fact that Quebecor (Videotron) spent $830 million, with much of that amount buying up spectrum in Southern/Eastern Ontario, and blocks in Alberta and BC, likely indicates that they are looking to become the fourth national wireless carrier.  They could eventually be a wild card if they undercut Bell Rogers and Telus.  Let's hope so.
