The announcement will put pressure on Rogers and not just because its two entrenched competitors will be able to offer a similar high-speed network. As well, new wireless companies may now choose to negotiate with Bell or Telus for roaming agreements, giving the two incumbent telcos a revenue boost.

I am hoping Telus/Bell will use the UIM card that KDDI in Japan uses.
For the people who don't know what the UIM card does:

KDDI subscribers can now access both GSM and CDMA networks with just one card and users will be able to use the same telephone number both domestically and internationally

I don't know what to really think of this. I have never been a fan of GSM technology, I find it slower and it seems Telus/Bell networks never get that "the network is busy please try again" message that my friends get with Rogers.It should be interesting to see what happens in the next week.
