Telecom news roundup: A Loblaws deal with Rogers, Bell and Freedom in Manitoba [May 18-24]

Telus announced a huge investment to improve its network in Ontario

It was a fairly quiet week for Canadian telecom, but there was still some notable news. Here’s what you need to know:

Pricing and deals

Koodo increased its $44/mo plan to 50GB of data.

Freedom Mobile expanded to Manitoba with a 50% discount on one plan as an introductory offer.

Infrastructure

Telus announced plans to invest $24 billion to improve its network in Ontario.

A report on broadband experience said Rogers led overall, but Bell was best in fibre.

Quebecor’s CEO called on the federal government to intervene in a deal between Loblaws and Glentel, owned by Rogers and Bell, that would see Freedom ousted from the grocery chain’s The Mobile Shop.
