Verizon Is Thinking Of Coming To Canada
A major US carrier could be making its way to Canadian shores. After Telus failed to acquire WIND Mobile, who is slowly going under, Verizon has stepped in as a possible candidate to take over the company. This also gives the cellular giant a chance to assert themselves into the Canadian market after failing to do so previously.
Now Verizon CFO, Fran Shammo, has stated that they are treading slowly as their are a lot of obstacles to overcome before actually making this move. However, if Verizon does come to Canada it will have a huge impact on existing carriers as it will force competition which usually benefits us the consumer.
I’ll definitely be keeping a close eye on this development and will be sure to pass on any new developments to you guys. What are your initial thoughts though? If Verizon comes to Canada will it automatically become the carrier to beat?
