CSPR in the News: Telus CEO Entwistle warns of ‘bloodbath’ if Verizon has advantage in wireless spectrum auction

Dr. Taylor was recently quoted in this Financial Post article:

The Conservative Party of Canada used the Telus decision as an opportunity to highlight its achievements on cellphone bills in an email to supporters, and Prime Minister Stephen Harper addressed the issue on his Facebook page last month.

“Stephen Harper doesn’t say a thing without it being well calculated. He’s well aware that this is a winner for the government,” said Gregory Taylor, principal investigator for Canadian Spectrum Policy Research, a research team at Toronto’s Ryerson University.

“If they can score political points while knocking around Rogers and Bell while still allowing Rogers and Bell to reap record profits, it’s a great win for the government.”
