Noted in the blog, these little companies are rarely a threat the telecom giants such as Rogers, Telus and Bell; however, from a consumer and student’s point of view, the big surge of cost-leadership small business causes a major threat to the oligopoly market of the Canadian telecom industry and will in turn affect their decisions. There is no doubt that the three giants will still hold the large majority of market power due to the poor receptions provided by the new companies but it will cause the price for service to drop in general. As seen from current events, Rogers cell contract has dropped to two years instead of three allowing consumers to feel more free and dropping their fees to gain back loyal customers.
