Certain cellphone plans in Western Canada are not as cheap as they were prior to the Rogers-Shaw merger, Canada's competition watchdog says.

As someone who worked in the cellular space for many many years with both Sasktel and Telus, I can say confidently that we HAVE NO competition watchdog. The CRTC just rubber stamps everything put in front of them by the big telcos after a quick sham so-called "investigation".

I'm struggling to think of a single time when the CRTC has NOT ruled int he Telcos favour. If there is, someone can enlighten me.
