The Canadian Stock I'm Buying Now (It's a Steal!)
Written by Christopher Liew, CFA at The Motley Fool Canada TSX's communications services sector was a laggard last year, but investors' interest has returned in 2025. The turnaround of the three dominant 5G stocks lifted the sector, contributing to its 7.2%-plus year-to-date gain (seventh-best out of 11 primary sectors). However, if you want exposure to this vital sector, Rogers Communications (TSX:RCI.B) is a screaming buy, not BCE or TELUS. A resurgence is on the horizon following the positive financial performance of Canada's third-largest telco in Q2 2025. The current share price of $45.39 (+5.4% year-to-date) is a steal in light of the visible growth potential. You can also partake in the lucrative 4.3% dividend. This large-cap stock has consistently paid dividends since 2000. Financial performance Tony Staffieri, President and CEO of Rogers, said the $25.3 billion company reported growth in Wireless, Cable, and Media. In the three months ending June 30, 2025, total revenue increased 2% to $5.2 billion compared to Q2 2025. While net income declined 62% year-over-year to $148 million, free cash flow (FCF) rose 39% to $929 million from a year ago. 'Combined with our team's strong execution, we took meaningful steps to unlock value for shareholders by accelerating the deleveraging of our balance sheet and making our transformational investment in our world-class sports assets,' added Staffieri. Management estimates the value of its sports and media assets to be over $15 billion. Leadership in Canadian sports On July 2, 2025, Rogers Communications officially became the majority owner (75%) of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE). It acquired BCE's 37.5% ownership stake in MLSE for $4.7 billion. The deal solidified Rogers' leadership position in Canadian sports, with a portfolio that includes the Toronto Blue Jays, Rogers Centre, and Sportsnet. Staffieri said, 'MLSE is a valuable and appreciating asset, and this investment positions us to unlock more value for Rogers shareholders. We're building something that lasts – on the ice, on the court, on the field, and across the country.' Its Executive Chairman, Edward Rogers, added, 'We're passionate about winning and we're committed to bringing more championships to fans in Canada.' First-in-Canada On June 3, 2025, Rogers Communications announced the initial deployment of the Ericsson 5G Advanced technology on its national network. According to Mark Kennedy, Chief Technology Officer of Rogers, 5G Advanced will help unlock the full potential of 5G for businesses and consumers. 'We continue to invest in Canada's largest 5G network and are proud to be the first in Canada to bring 5G Advanced technology to our customers,' Kennedy added. Ericsson has been a partner in network technologies since 1985, and Rogers has invested over $40 billion in its network over the last decade. The partners believe that a new era of 5G enhancements for enterprises and consumers has begun. Meanwhile, Rogers has dramatically enhanced the internet service in the Southern Gulf Islands. On June 12, 2025, the telco giant invested $10 million in under-sea fibre lines and infrastructure to bring faster speeds to the communities. Growth leader Rogers Communications is committed to further improving operational execution and making well-timed investments to grow its core businesses and deliver increased shareholder value. Thus far, the company is taking meaningful steps to achieve its ultimate objective of becoming the growth leader in a highly competitive industry.

Ottawa sides with CRTC to boost competitor access to fibre networks
OTTAWA – Industry Minister Mélanie Joly has upheld the CRTC's wholesale regulatory framework for high-speed Internet services, giving Telus Corp. a victory after a long battle. But other telecom operators are furious. In a landmark decision announced late Wednesday evening, Joly sided with the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission's (CRTC) after it decided to allow for greater competition on existing networks for high-speed Internet services across the country. The CRTC authorized Canada's three major telecommunications companies to resell fibre optics to Internet service providers (ISPs) on their respective networks. This decision means, for example, that Telus, which is strong in Western Canada, can use other providers' networks to attract thousands of customers in Ontario and Quebec instead of building its own infrastructure. 'By immediately increasing competition and consumer choice, the CRTC's decision aims to reduce the cost of high-speed Internet for Canadians and will contribute toward our broader mandate to bring down costs across the board,' said Joly in a statement. The August 2024 decision, confirmed in June 2025 by the regulator, was based on extensive expert consultation, and the CRTC received more than 300 public comments. 'This decision… sends a strong signal to consumers, businesses and investors that the Canadian regulatory system is robust, transparent and effective in balancing the needs of stakeholders, and enabling government policy,' said Telus President and CEO Darren Entwistle. The CRTC recently said that 'several thousand Canadian households' are already benefiting from new plans offered by 'dozens of providers that are using the access enabled by the Final Decision.' 'Changing course now would reverse the benefits of this increased competition and would prevent more Canadians from having new choices of ISPs in the future,' wrote the CRTC in its June 20 decision. Telus has been lobbying lawmakers for over a year and even launched a petition that garnered over 300,000 signatures in support of the regulator's decision. Entwistle signalled that his company is 'passionately committed to building national infrastructure and technology for the benefit of consumers, and the productivity and innovation of our private and public sectors.' However, key players like Bell, Rogers and Cogeco aren't thrilled about it. Many companies had been challenging the decision and asked cabinet to review it. A year later, they are 'dismayed,' 'shocked' and 'profoundly disappointed' by the federal government's decision. 'Virtually the entire industry, including small and regional providers, urged our elected officials to reverse the CRTC decision,' Rogers Communication said in a statement. 'The impact of this decision will include cuts to capital investment, a loss of network construction jobs, and reduced competition which will mean higher prices for Canadians.' In an analyst call on Thursday morning, Bell Canada's CEO Mirko Bibic said he was 'disappointed' and urged the government and the CRTC 'to ensure that network builders are fully compensated for significant build costs and investment risks they take in building.' Bell Canada's executive vice president, Robert Malcolmson, recently said that 'as a direct result' of the policy, his company has reduced its capital expenditures by $500 million in 2025 alone and by over $1.2 billion since the CRTC's initial decision in November 2023. Rogers and Cogeco, for instance, are asking Ottawa to immediately reconsider this decision. 'The Federal Cabinet's inaction is unacceptable,' said Cogeco's President and CEO Frédéric Perron in a statement. 'The CRTC's current approach undermines choice and affordability, halting crucial innovation and investment vital for Canada's future,' he added. According to Cogeco, smaller or independent providers that don't have their own facilities could very well be threatened by this policy. The company said it would continue to challenge the CRTC's 'broken wholesale regime', including through the Federal Court of Appeal. Cogeco and Eastlink, a property of Bragg Communications, filed an appeal in July asking the court to quash the decision.
