Stop the Spectrum Gobblers, Stop the Squeeze!

 The canadian wireless landscape is in pathetic shape. John Bitove (Mobilicity) describes it best:

“For years, Canada’s Big Three ‘tri-opoly’ have been acting like squirrels preparing for a 50-year winter. They hoard spectrum to keep others from giving consumers an affordable choice and Canadians have been paying the price for their self-serving interests for far too long.”

Please, sign the petition here and have your voice heard. This affects all Canadians:

You’re with the big3

They’re willing to pay billions to gobble up these wireless spectra. This cuts into their profit margins. Guess who has to make up for it? YOU, Sucker!
You Lose.

You’re with the new entrants

They don’t have the unlimited cash to outbid the spectrum gobblers so they can’t keep up with the demand and they’ll eventually go out of business. You’ll lose your awesome wireless plan (i.e. $40 for unlimited everything) and will have to switch to the big 3 (or one of their pathetic re-brands) and pay $200+ for an ‘unlimited’ illusion.
You Lose.

You don’t even have a cell phone

The people and businesses that you deal with use mobile services and if their costs go up, they’ll eventually pass those costs to you. You will end up paying more for everything.
You Lose.

Take 30 seconds and sign the petition and maybe we’ll actually see some fair competition here in Canada. Do nothing and watch and WE ALL LOSE.

I’ve made my choice, but it’ll take more than just me to make a difference. Give the big 3 the boot and the new entrants a chance. I switched to Mobilicity over a year ago and I am MUCH happier than I ever was with Rogers.

Stop the Squeeze here:.
