Article


Shaw Communications has reached an agreement to buy Wind Mobile in a transaction valued at $1.6 billion.
The Calgary-based telecommunications company says it will acquire a full interest in parent company Mid-Bowline Group Corp., which owns Wind.
The transaction is subject to a number of approvals that include the Competition Bureau and the Ministry of Innovation, Science & Economic Development.


 I'm screwed.
My phone company just sold me out to Shaw.
It may be time to try skype or a 15$ / month land line or something.
I'll have to think on this.

Edit ::: forgot ...still pending approval. Hasn't happened yet.
