CRTC prevents Sugar Mobile from operating on the Rogers network

Canadians don't have a lot of wireless connectivity choices and this sad reality is reflected in the high prices we pay. I have previously written about Sugar Mobile and their not for everyone mediocre but cheap offering.

Today they have been dealt a blow by the CRTC (read the CRTC ruling here). The CRTC ordered Sugar Mobile to stop using the Rogers network (improperly) within 50 days. 

Obviously Sugar Mobile is disappointed by the ruling and has published this statement on their website.

The Canadian market needs competition to drive innovation and hopefully make the market more competitive. It looks like one option has been taken off the table.
