Mayoral candidate Ana Bailao is promising to cancel millions of dollars of cell phone contracts with three major telecommunication companies until they allow reliable service on the TTC.
In a Thursday morning press release, Bailao promised to cancel about $30 million worth of City of Toronto contracts with Bell, Telus and Rogers and instead give that business “to companies that offer reliable mobile service on the TTC.”
“Telecom companies don’t get to decide if there’s mobile service on the TTC, elected officials do,” she said.over why the TTC doesn’t already have reliable cell service on its subway system Currently, transit users can make calls or answer text messages on the network at any subway station, as well as in the tunnels for the downtown U — stations between Spadina and Bloor-Yonge — as well as between Sheppard West and Vaughan Metropolitan Centre Stations., and highlighted transit safety as a top concern for her campaign.
