The company has reduced the price per gigabyte of data by 50% on its most-chosen plan, has lowered its 5G entry price, and will provide all Rogers 4G wireless customers with access to the 5G network at no cost.

“We’ve invested to build the largest 5G network in the country covering more than 2,000 communities, and we’re committed to ensuring all Canadians can access the best 5G technology,” said Phil Hartling, President, Wireless. “We’re squarely focused on delivering a service that Canadians value and offering them lower-priced options that fit their needs. There’s a reason more Canadians choose Rogers every day, more than any other telecom company.”

The Canadian telecommunications market

The Canadian telecommunications market is dominated by a few large players, such as Bell Canada, Rogers Communications, and Telus Corporation, which together hold the majority of the market share.

The prices for telecom services in Canada are generally considered to be among the highest in the world. This is partly due to the high cost of building and maintaining telecom infrastructure in a large and sparsely populated country like Canada. Additionally, there is limited competition in the market, which has allowed the dominant players to maintain relatively high prices.
