It’s tough to see some of the images coming out of Hawai’i — a place that’s so special to so many of us. Michelle and I are thinking of everyone who has lost a loved one, or whose life has been turned upside down. If you’d like to help, you can do so here. hawaiicommunityfoundation.or…

Tapping into the power of the @awscloud + @WorkingGroupTwo collab is transformative for small carriers. But any old core merely deployed in a cloud wouldn’t change much. WG2 has built a mobile core *designed for* the cloud, and AWS brings unmatched scalability + reliability.

Meanwhile in the US... ISPs are making dents in the mobile market through MVNO agreements. Here in Canada, we will do the opposite with the #Shaw #Rogers merger. Fewer players = more competition? #INDU #CRTC #CTRS #CDNpoli @FP_Champagne @checkupcbc fiercewireless.com/wireless/…

Indeed, Videotron must rely on agreements with Rogers. The Competition Bureau (plus common sense) says this is very risky and fragile while TekSavvy says it's illegal: teksavvy.com/in-the-news/202… All kinds of problems with this.

What happens to Shaw's wireless spectrum in the Rogers acquisition? How will Videotron maintain service for Freedom's customers if they lose it? Will it be through a roaming agreement with Rogers b/c that would be ridiculous Any insight? @peternowak @Bryson_M @AlsoKnownAs_AA
