- Cells Phones Cost Less In French it turns out. How did this happen and what does it mean for the future of Canada's wireless prices?

Do you have a Fizz referal code?
Sure, mine is “IFACY”, I think it gives us both $50. I should have put this in the video I guess so I’ll pin this comment.
1:12 shots fired
I'm actually very fond of JJ
You have absolutely become my favourite person for making that JJ reference.
It really bothers me that JJ is so awful on Quebec, and yet in the US, he is considered someone to listen to on things Canadian. His views are super distorted.
@@petersilva037 Indeed. And to be clear, it's not like our society is without reproach. We have our flaws, and there are many areas where we should be criticized.
But there is a big difference between useful and constructive criticism, and barely disguised hate with a thin veneer of "impartiality" painted on top.
So Fizz is available in Ottawa, you say...
I've heard rumours the videotron kiosk is offering a 28gb(+ unlimited) plan for 50$/month at st-laurent mall right now if you want to know what competition is all about
might want to check that out and use the opportunity to try the bike path that goes underground while the lrt is broken...
So is Videotron if you like paying $20 more to go to a shop and get mail.
@@PaigeMTL yeah they don't know what email newsletters are and they still send you regular mail lol
but fizz is a great leverage and I managed to get a 20$/month plan with 6gb text and talk with fido . A mix of threats and images of their old plans that they bumped the prices up and really fucked up customer service
Yes, as a customer of Fizz that lives in Ottawa, I can testify to that.
I love the Au Bon Marché reference
I came for the subject matter, but I stayed for Alan Partridge, Au Bon marché and the dunk on JJ. I feel like this video was designed to appeal to my specific sensibilities 🤓
As an aside, there was a time when Québécor was somewhat interested in the rest of Canada: when I was a kid, they owned my hometown Winnipeg Sun (and then later the entire Sun newspaper chain). They even launched the ill-fated Sun News cable channel at one point…
EDIT: By the way, your hypothesis is correct, the only reason I was able to switch my cell phone to Vidéotron was because their deals allow them to provide coverage in Manitoba and other places outside of Quebec I might want to travel 👍
Back of the net!
2:22 caption was hilarious
Fizz being a no store front brand where you order your phone and SIM online is definitely going to disrupt the market outside QC.
And PKP might just doing this to send a giant middle finger to the big 3 and they definitely have the pockets deep enough to build country wide infrastructure.
I agree and I think that fizz is another indicator that Videotron intends to expand
Nice shade aboot J.J. McCullough there... smooth :)
You compare Québecor to dwarfs 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
I love Fizz
Yeah I appreciate how they reward you over time with bonus packs and stuff rather than take you for granted. I’m going to try out their home internet plan next because it looks like it’ll save me quite a bit.
Great video. I enjoyed your sense humor while still keeping it informative.
In France i think we have one of the cheapest in europe, and it's really good (like i pay 16€ (20$) for unlimited data and this include 20Go... in Canada, so right now i didn't even wanted to change, but having a canadian phone number is more convenient so i guess fizz is the way.
The thing is, tho, than it's cheap in France thanks to a new competitor how breaks the oligopole completely, and what's funny is the similirality with videotron, (check "free" company and Xavier Niel)
Great video!
I have lived in 5 countries and for business reasons I've needed to keep 4 of my phone lines alive after moving. Right now I pay as much for my Canadian phone plan as my German, Spanish and UK plans COMBINED.
the JJ reference LMAO
Ok this is shaping out to be one of my fave Can TH-cam channels ahhahah.
Competition, in this economy!??
Who has the best coverage for ontario and quebec if I want a prepaid simcard to stick into my t-mobile phone?
Awesome video!!
why is it so expensive? I pay about 20e for 70gb
Wait a minute, if you can live in Ottawa but use your phone in the rest of Canada - can I just pretend I live in Ottawa (but actually live in Toronto), and use this service? Or will they find out where I live?
Yes. People doing precisely this has created issues between Rogers and Videotron
@@PaigeMTL I see. But you're not...recommending it...right? lol
They base it off your billing address. I have a Nunavut number (chose the area code for fun) but pay Saskatchewan rates because that's where my billing address is.
They need to learn to stop scamming
Hello Civ4.
'french privilege? ' . There is also a well know privilege is the english one, the one when you feel granted that everybody should speak in language in a none english speaking sociey !
Spend less time being triggered and more time getting jokes
