## Resource

Starting this Friday, Canadians are getting a major break on phone and internet bills—thanks to new CRTC rules banning activation, plan-change, and cancellation fees. Switching providers or changing plans won’t cost you extra, saving you anywhere from $30 to $80. This move, part of a broader effort to make telecom more affordable and accessible, gives consumers real control over their services and makes it easier to find better deals. With Canadian bills among the highest in the G7, this is a crucial step toward saving money and reducing barriers to switching. The CRTC is listening—and this is just the beginning of more consumer-friendly changes ahead. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
