Rogers Communications Inc. says it should be allowed to add cellular service for its own customers in the Toronto subway network without waiting for an ongoing dispute with its rival carriers to be resolved.
In a filing to Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada earlier this month, the telecommunications company said it ``strongly opposes'' a measure the department is considering that would prevent it from giving its customers first access to the upgraded wireless network. It was among three options floated in July by Industry Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne.
The company noted there are "legitimate technical constraints associated with onboarding other carriers'' that would leave its rivals at least four weeks behind on installing and testing their equipment on the TTC. Rogers has vowed to make the upgraded system accessible for other mobile carriers to provide wireless coverage to their customers. That includes honouring BAI's previous contract with Freedom Mobile, now owned by Quebecor Inc., the lone carrier whose customers already have access to the network.
It added the effectiveness of Ottawa's consultation process "would be nullified if Rogers launches wireless services in the TTC Subway System before a final determination has been rendered.''
