My plans for Fido are:

In may when my new system access fee comes up (right now $0/year), I will
cancel unless billed at the old rate of $48. Otherwise, I will pay Sprint
Canada $45 to set up the new telephone line. Which is now in Vancouver.

No Telus for me!

I will still have by Bell Mobility CDMA PCS cellfone.
