April 27th, 2009Telus taking a run at Globalive for foreign ownership
From the WirelessNorth.ca submission engine:
Last year, Telus asked Industry Canada to publicly review Globalive’s ownership structure (globalive-under-fire). However, their request was turned down.
Now, Telus is questioning the legality of Industry Canada’s 5-month long extensive ownership review of Globalive. They are asking CRTC to publicly re-examine Globalive, so that they can have their own say in it. More on Toronto Star here:

Do they want to create roadblocks for Globalive, or delay their launch?
Tony Lacavera, Globalive’s CEO, has also posted about this on wirelesssoapbox.com. He says, “There are a lot of people in the telecom industry looking at WirelessSoapbox so if you have something to say about this latest move by Telus – I’d invite you to share it here.”
