Even for internet pricing we're among the highest in the world and to give a big player larger reach is going to end up crap for consumers and likely raise your internet rates. I'm surprised you're okay with that.

I wouldn't be okay with Bell taking over Telus either. If anything I'd like to see Bell broken up or a government mandated drop in wholesale internet rates across the board and municipalities allowing preferential access rates for new entrants looking to build networks. Works in other places around the world.
This.

There are two ways to create better pricing in Canada.

Allowing MVNOs access to the mobile networks. And forcing better wholesale internet rates to encourage other companies to provide internet services.

Funny how the big 3 are very much against both.

In other countries (USA) both work fine, and the big telecom players don't see massive drops in their profits.
