To whom? Xplornet. They picked up a piece of the MTS customer base when
Bell bought them. They haven't done a lot with that yet but there are a
couple of stores in Manitoba, and Xplornet is a national company.
They would have to make a bid to pick up any divested customers if/when
that time comes but they were successful last time.

I'm not a telecom guy, but is this really a concern?
Some time ago, the federal government believed that Canadian cell phone rates
were too high because of lack of competition, and worked to get new outfits
like WIND Mobile into the market. None survive. WIND died down and is now
Shaw's Freedom Mobile, which could get folded into Rogers/Fido/Chatr.
Maybe the CRTC will decide that the big 3 shouldn't own all the spectrum, and
force Rogers to divest Freedom/Shaw Mobile. But to who? SaskTel? Richard
Branson?
