www.WirelessFederation.com/news: A legal action has been launched by Telus Communications against Rogers Communications for allegedly misleading ads claiming Rogers provides “Canada’s fastest network.” As per the complaint, since a Nov. 5 upgrade, a network run by Bell and Telus offers faster and more reliable service than the Rogers network.

Rogers introduced the advertisement in 2007 and continued after November 5. Rogers claim of “Canada’s most reliable network,” has also been declared as false by Telus.

A declaration has been seeked from Rogers by Telus confirming that its advertisements breached Canada’s Competition Act, in addition to injunction from distributing the ads, damages and compensation.

Telus, Bell and Rogers control about 90 per cent of Canada’s wireless telecommunications market.
