Canada's industry minister is calling on the country's major telecom companies to come to an agreement over wireless service in Toronto's subway system.

In a letter on Twitter, François-Philippe Champagne said he has taken note of Rogers Communications Inc.'s recent announcement that it's buying the company that owns the wireless network in the Toronto Transit Commission subway system.

BAI Communications Inc. won the contract to build and operate the TTC's public Wi-Fi and cellular network in 2012, but only Freedom Mobile signed on to provide coverage to its customers through BAI's network. Rogers president and CEO Tony Staffieri said last week that his company would not attempt to prevent any of the other telecom companies from offering service to their customers on Toronto’s subway system once Rogers takes control of the infrastructure.

Bibic told Champagne that Bell and Telus have jointly offered to acquire the BAI contract if Rogers won't agree to that model on its own. The offer includes a $10 million direct payment to the TTC for discretionary projects like transit safety improvements. "Telus continues to believe that a consortium approach to building the TTC network is the best way to ensure that redundancies are in place to allow for continuity of service in the event that one carrier suffers a network outage," Gilhooley said in an email.
