When Rogers announced plans to buy Shaw, Canada's Competition Bureau fought the merger, citing concerns that the elimination of Shaw as a competitor would lead to harm for consumers, including price increases.

At the time, Rogers CEO Tony Staffieri pledged lower prices for customers and brushed aside competition concerns.

Earlier this year, Rogers upped the price of some cellphone, internet and home phone plans.

I seem to remember some list of "enforceable conditions" set out by the government for this merger. So those were bullshit, I guess.

Another W for the telecom cartel.
