The Next Step To Stop High Cell Phone Bills

As you probably know by now, the Big Three cell phone giants are trying to shut independent competitors out from an upcoming wireless spectrum auction. Spectrum is crucial infrastructure for cell phone providers that want to compete in Canada, and if the Big Three succeed it will mean less choice in the cell phone market, higher monthly bills, and even worse customer service. In response, we at OpenMedia.ca launched a campaign last week, which helps Canadians call on Industry Minister Christian Paradis to help level the playing field in the cell phone market. He can do this by setting aside spectrum (which is crucial for cell phone companies) for small independents and start-ups.

Please help us by taking the next step to spread the word to thousands more by sharing this CTV News report about OpenMedia.ca's Stop The Cell Phone Squeeze citizen-lead campaign:

Video is an excellent way to reach new people with this crucial issue. We know from experience that government can be compelled to change course when thousands of Canadians are informed and engaged in vocalizing opposition.

Help us fight for more cell phone competition, lower monthly bills, and better customer service by sharing this video with your family, friends, and contacts.

For an open & affordable digital future,

Glyn & The OpenMedia.ca Team
