Mobile devices unlocked free of charge, upon request, and all newly purchased devices unlocked
Thanks to the CRTC, Starting December 1 2017, companies will no longer be allowed to charge to unlock handset or even sell locked devices. Up until now, a phone purchased from the cartel would simple be locked. Unlocking your device would allow you to use different SIM cards within Canada and abroad. So by creating this "fake sense of loyalty" the cartel would forcing user to remain with the one company and abide by their pricing. So prior to December 1st 2017, if you wanted to change service provider but keep your phone, you had to pay an unlocking fee.
