Mediation talks have failed to resolve the Competition Bureau’s objections to the $26-billion merger between Rogers and Shaw, the telecoms said Thursday.
Mediation talks have failed to resolve the Competition Bureau’s objections to the $26-billion merger between Rogers Communications Inc. and Shaw Communications Inc., the telecoms said Thursday.
“The Bureau’s unwillingness to meaningfully engage unduly delays lower wireless prices for Canadian consumers,” the companies said in a statement posted to Quebecor’s website. The Competition Bureau is attempting to block the merger of Canada’s two largest cable companies, arguing that the deal would reduce competition and result in higher cellphone bills, poorer service and less choice for consumers.
On Tuesday evening, Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne outlined the conditions under which his department – Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada – would approve the transfer of Shaw’s wireless licenses to Videotron. Those conditions include that Quebecor commit itself to reducing wireless prices and agree not to sell Shaw’s spectrum licenses for 10 years.
