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?
