Canadian Consumer Wireless, Internet, and Wireline Voice Services Forecast, 2023–2027

Canadian Consumer Wireless, Internet, and Wireline Voice Services Forecast, 2023–2027


This IDC study examines consumer wireless voice and data, residential dial-up and high-speed internet, and residential wireline voice services and addresses the current state of these markets in Canada. It provides forecasts for both subscriptions and revenue as well as the key drivers and inhibitors behind the forecast."In the face of a series of unforeseen global events resulting in record high inflation last year, the communications market continued to demonstrate remarkable resilience, all the while gradually recovering some lost revenue from previous years," says author Manish Nargas, research manager, IDC Canada's Consumer and Mobile Research. "On the back of high consumer reliance, advancements in network technologies, and more recent market consolidation, IDC expects that the Canadian communications players will double down in their efforts to uncover new opportunities to monetize as they look to win market share."
