Why Canadians Pay Sky-High Cell Phone Rates
Canadians are paying far more for cell phone service than almost anywhere else—but why? Today on True Patriot Love, host Paul Micucci sits down with Jim Lang to break down the hidden costs behind Canada’s cell phone rates and explore the future of competition in the market.
In this episode, we cover:
• Why Canadian cell phone rates are 7–25 times higher than Europe and Australia.
• How $11.6 billion in public infrastructure has shaped the current telecom landscape.
• The role of monopolies like Bell and Rogers in driving up costs.
• How sports broadcasting deals tie into your monthly phone bill.
• Steps toward introducing more competition and lowering prices for Canadians.
