It appears that Canada’s Competition Bureau is investigating Apple over deals that they have with cell phone carriers in Canada. There’s not a lot of detail here, but it appears that they’re looking into anti-competitive clauses in contracts that Apple Canada have with domestic wireless carriers. Presumably, that’s Rogers, Bell, Telus, Videotron, and SaskTel to name a few carriers who have the iPhone. Also the Bureau is seeking a court order to force Apple Canada to turn over records related to this investigation, but somehow there is no conclusion of wrongdoing on Apple’s part.
Hmmm…. This will be interesting to watch and see what the outcome is.
