Slow access to their towers, just borng...Lovely roaming fess in Europe from Aliant and Bell, I do name Aliant the "Alone Ant" once connected to the hub you are alone for sure. 1 MB of Data with Bell and Aliand cost me 50 Dollars of Roaming fees. Europe implemented a by law to not charge more than 2 Dollars per MB, also there is a bylaw in place not to charge more than 50ct per minute call received. So whats the mark up. 1000% and more. Alexander Graham Bell would turn in his grave if he would knew about this scam. Canadian Companies never do invest money to improver the services, none of all. You can start with Bell, Rogers, Alian, Starchoice, and so on. Please do not forget to add mid size companies too....Forget them, the less you need, the less they can rob you...a soul from Europe Cheaper now Yes, but theri back bones ???

Would you consider beefing up the story a bit?

But i must say, for the US residents that are commenting here please F off this is not your country to discuss. You dont' understand the taxing system here and you refuse to learn it. We pay more taxes so we get more services like healthcare so when my dad has cancer he can get treated without us selling out home. #2 everything is more expensive and the reason is very simple, our salaries are very high in this country. Any average joe can make a good living here. #3. no we don't need any American companies in Canada to suck up our wealth that is a ridiculous statement. and last of all yes the government should step in and change the laws governing the telecom companies. The CRTC is garbage and they should all be fired out of a cannon. I hate Canadian telecome corps more than anyone they have screwed me and my company out of $$$$$$$$ of dollars so far.
