Local Telecom war is launched

For decades, Manitoba Telecom System(Manitoba Telephone Service before it was privatized) has been the sole provider of across the board telephone service to the province of Manitoba in the land line spectrum. They had quick competition on cellular, but landlines was all them. Telus from Alberta/Saskatchewan region came in for business phones for a time, but they didn't do much cause they had to work with MTS's systems, and MTS was able to price them out of the market. Well, that monopoly is about to change. Shaw Cablesystem, the leading provider of Cable TV in the city of Winnipeg, is launching it's own Telephone service, not surprising since MTS TV was launched a few months ago. Let the fun begin, and I hope that it will lead to lower prices on both services.
