Rogers and Shaw were forced to extend their June closing date until the end of July as they duke it out with the Competition Bureau over whether consumers would be left better or worse off.
The effects on competition, Rogers argued in the 19-page filing, will be “minimal to none.” Instead, the Toronto-based telco countered that “any alleged impact on competition is far outweighed by the transaction’s efficiencies.”Article content Shaw also responded, arguing that the company is being sold to Rogers because of the “generational” scale of investments needed to offer affordable and ubiquitous wireline and wireless “next generation connectivity platforms” to Canadians. Shaw said there is no basis for the “extraordinary measure” of blocking the transaction over alleged prevention or lessening of competition in the wireless services market in parts of Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario.
Lacavera has been public about his desire to purchase Freedom Mobile since it became clear in the spring that the federal government was not going to permit a “wholesale” transfer of Shaw’s wireless assets to Rogers. He has argued that Globalive is positioned to bring U.S.-style “pure-play” competition, including lower prices to the Canadian wireless landscape.
