Rogers CEO pledges to work with rival companies to provide TTC cell service

Rogers Communications Inc. president and CEO Tony Staffieri said his company would not attempt to prevent any of its rivals from offering cellphone service to their customers onSpeaking Wednesday at a lunch hosted by Canadian Club Toronto, Staffieri pledged the network “will work for everybody.”

“We really need to figure out and implement on a timely basis 9-1-1 emergency calling throughout the subway transit system and it doesn’t matter who you’re on. It could be us, Bell, Telus, Videotron — it doesn’t matter,” he said. “We think it’s important for not just our customers but for Torontonians and that was our intent in doing this. If Bell, Telus want to step up and join in, we’re happy and open to having those discussions with them.”

Bell and Telus had expressed concern over whether their customers would be able to use wireless service on the transit system after Rogers announced it had acquired BAI Communications’ Canadian arm, which has held the rights to the Toronto Transit Commission’s wireless network since 2012.
