S&p 500, bitcoin cad, gold futures, russell 2000, small businesses see a big advantage with rogers for business.

The way we work has changed. As people start to return to the office, smart businesses are changing as well. Looking to combine the flexibility and efficiency of work-from-home with the collaboration and team-building that comes with in-person work, many companies are moving to a hybrid work model . But in order to do so, businesses need to have tools in place to enable their employees to do their best work no matter where they are—at home, in the office, traveling, and everywhere in-between.

Enter Rogers for Business .

As a reliable, cost-effective option for Canadian small businesses looking to navigate evolving business models, Rogers has the tools you need to keep pace in today’s increasingly hybrid world. With mobile, internet, and collaborative business solutions—plus next-level support—Rogers for Business provides small businesses with a major advantage. By ensuring your telecommunication needs are well taken care of, Rogers allows you to focus on what matters most: growing your business.

Advantage Mobility is where versatility meets value

Rogers for Business offers a variety of products tailormade for hybrid work models , making it a true one-stop-shop for small businesses, no matter what industry you’re in.

First, Advantage Mobility bundles internet and high-speed wireless plans into one attractive package, resulting in incredible value—and just as importantly, cost predictability—for two essential business solutions.

Take advantage of Canada’s most trusted wireless network¹: thanks to the variety of shareable and non-shareable plans on offer, it’s never been easier to find the right plan to meet your company’s needs. With every Rogers for Business wireless plan, you’re getting unlimited Canada-wide calling, call waiting/forwarding, enhanced voicemail, call display, and unlimited text, picture, and video messaging—all on Canada’s largest and most reliable 5G network².

Rogers Business Internet , meanwhile, offers your team a reliable, secure, and cost-efficient solution both in and out of the office. Unlimited-usage, high-speed plans come with built-in network-level security, eliminating the need for costly firewalls by stopping malware attacks and blocking requests to malicious sites. Plus, with Virtual Private Network (VPN) connectivity, your remote and hybrid employees access business files over a secure network, ensuring sensitive material remains well-protected.

And for those who subscribe to the old maxim that anything that can go wrong will go wrong, Rogers offers a wireless back-up option to keep your business online in the unlikely event of an outage. Couple this with 24/7 technical support from easy-to-work-with specialists dedicated to providing you with top-notch service and a 4-hour MTTR, and you can rest assured your business is covered³.

Cost-effective collaboration tools keep your team connected

The advantage doesn’t end at wireless and internet plans; Rogers for Business also offers value-added collaboration services to help keep your team productive and customers satisfied.

Microsoft 365 is another must-have tool to enable effortless collaboration, allowing you to centralize all your communication needs in one place with access to premium Microsoft apps (such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint), cloud storage, the ability to host meetings using Microsoft Teams, and more. Better yet, you can currently get the first six months of Microsoft 365 free when you subscribe with select Advantage Mobility bundles ⁴.

With Microsoft Teams evolving to include global voice calling , companies now have the option to skip landline phones entirely. That is a significant cost savings—to say nothing of the hassle of dealing with on-site telephone infrastructure and hardware.

With Rogers for Business, value comes first

[Rogers] [Business plan, may require a GST number] $40/mo for 200GB and unlimited Canada-wide talk and text, no contract required

• $40/month, month-to-month with no contract required
• 200 GB data
• Unlimited Canada-wide talk and text
• End date unknown
• My friend signed up for this mobile plan by porting in a single line without having to make any long-term commitment or sign up for any other service like internet.
• Updated the wording to reflect uncertainty about whether a GST number is required or just a Business Number. Requiring a BN makes more sense than requiring a GST number, but my friend said GST number, so I will leave in that possibility until someone posts confirmation that only a BN is required.
• I remembered (much later) that my friend said they also got 1000 monthly international long distance minutes calling for free with this plan. I don't know all of the countries it includes.

ELUS and Bell achieve their out-of-region coverage through a reciprocal network sharing agreement referred to as multi-operator core network (MOCN). Basically, both companies share their radio access network but operate their own network cores. More than just co-locating on the same tower or sharing backhaul facilities, network sharing gives customers of either company access to the same antennas and eNodeB base stations at each cell site in their respective networks. The two companies share their 3G and 4G RANs in different parts of Canada. TELUS builds cell sites in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, in Windsor, Toronto and Ottawa in Ontario, and in Montréal, Québec City and the Gaspé Peninsula in Québec.

MOCN allows multiple mobile network operators (MNOs) to share a common core network infrastructure while maintaining their individual radio access networks (RANs). Each operator operates its own core network, including one or more independent nodes. The multiple core networks can communicate with each other as peers through software.

Former U.S. Rep. and Republican candidate for Michigan Senate Mike Rogers speaks during a Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump campaign event, Aug. 20, 2024 in Howell, Mich. (AP)

Claim that Senate candidate Mike Rogers worked to give Chinese companies U.S. access lacks evidence

If your time is short.

• Republican Mike Rogers, a U.S. Senate candidate in Michigan, worked for AT&T when the company was negotiating with Huawei to sell its devices in the U.S. Before that, he led an effort to discourage American tech companies from doing business with the Chinese companies Huawei and ZTE.  
• Huawei is a multinational Chinese tech company that sells phones and mobile network equipment that experts say has close ties to the Chinese government.  
• Rogers’ work at AT&T was for a separately managed cybersecurity division, which AT&T said had no connection to Chinese tech companies.  

In Michigan, recent ads airing on TV and online target Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers over his past work in tech, accusing him of aiding Chinese companies in accessing U.S. markets and risking national security.

Elissa Slotkin, a Democratic representative, is challenging Rogers to fill the Senate seat left open by retiring Democrat Debbie Stabenow. Slotkin has accused Rogers of helping companies tied to China and pointed to Rogers’ work with AT&T, which was pushing to sell Chinese phones in the U.S. at the time.

In a 15-second ad that appeared on Facebook and Instagram from Aug. 9-Aug. 19, Slotkin’s campaign said Rogers’ work involved bringing Chinese tech companies to the U.S. 

"What did Mike Rogers do after 20 years as a politician? He left Michigan to trade on his D.C. connections, helping Chinese tech companies get access to the U.S.," the ad’s narrator said, as a Huawei logo flashes on the screen. 

When we asked Slotkin’s campaign for evidence behind her claim, it pointed us to articles about AT&T’s efforts to bring Huawei and ZTE devices to the U.S.

Huawei is a multinational Chinese tech company that sells phones and mobile network equipment. A research report from Rand Corp., a nonprofit think tank, said Huawei has close ties to the Chinese government, and lawmakers have pushed American tech companies to cut ties with Huawei over national security concerns.

Rogers worked for American tech companies that had connections to Huawei — including AT&T and Nokia. But Slotkin’s ad would have viewers believe Rogers was involved in deals to bring Chinese tech to the U.S. There’s little evidence to back that up.

"At no point ever has Mike advocated for Chinese technology companies, especially Huawei and ZTE," Rogers campaign spokesperson Chris Gustafson said.

Rogers served in Congress for 14 years, representing Michigan’s 8th Congressional District from 2001 to 2015. He was the House Intelligence Committee chair from 2011 to 2015. 

As House Intelligence Committee chair, Rogers oversaw an investigation that led to the committee labeling Huawei and ZTE, another Chinese tech company, as national security threats. A committee report found no evidence that the companies were spying in the U.S., but said both companies "cannot be trusted to be free of foreign state influence." 

Adam Segal, an expert on Chinese foreign policy and cybersecurity at the Council on Foreign Relations, told PolitiFact that the committee’s assessment was based on concerns that the companies’ network infrastructure could be used to surveil Americans or to disable vital network operations.

"You’re worried about collection of data, and turning over that data for intelligence purposes, or causing a disruption in critical services or telecom services in a crisis," Segal said. 

In 2012, Rogers appeared on CBS News’ "60 Minutes" to warn American tech companies against working with Huawei. 

"I would find another vendor if you care about your intellectual property, if you care about your consumers’ privacy, and you care about the national security of the United States of America," Rogers said. 

Featured Fact-check

Huawei denies that it threatens U.S. security. It has said it is a private company and would deny Chinese government requests to access its network or cede intelligence.

In 2022, the Federal Communications Commission banned the sale of new devices and equipment from Huawei and ZTE, citing security concerns.

After leaving Congress in 2015, Rogers hosted a syndicated talk radio show and began working and consulting in cybersecurity. He joined the board of directors of companies and nonprofits related to his congressional work in cybersecurity. These included IronNet Cybersecurity, a cybersecurity services company, and Mitre, a nonprofit that conducts federally funded research in fields including defense and cybersecurity.

Both AT&T and Rogers’ spokesperson, Gustafson, confirmed that Rogers worked as a sales consultant for AT&T’s managed cybersecurity unit in 2016 and 2017. AT&T was then talking with Huawei on a deal to sell its phones in the U.S. The company had also begun selling devices made by ZTE . 

The deal between AT&T and Huawei unraveled in 2018 , before it was set to be formally announced. Although the companies gave no official reason for the deal’s demise, it came after members of the House and Senate intelligence committees wrote to the FCC with concerns about Huawei’s plans to enter the U.S. market, Reuters reported. 

Rogers’ campaign and AT&T told us that Rogers was not involved in any business decisions related to Huawei. Gustafson said Rogers "played absolutely zero role and had no oversight or say in equipment procurement for AT&T Wireless."

AT&T confirmed Rogers’ position in an email, and said he "had no role in business or purchasing decisions with the company." 

In biographical blurbs connected to 2017 and 2019 conferences Rogers attended, Rogers was described as "chief security adviser" for AT&T. AT&T described Rogers’ role as a sales consultant.

In August, Rogers’ campaign sent a cease-and-desist letter to local TV stations over their airing a Slotkin ad that also claimed that Rogers aided Chinese companies. In the letter, which the Rogers campaign provided to PolitiFact, Rogers’ lawyers wrote that Rogers "has never worked for any Chinese tech companies, including ZTE and Huawei." 

Although Slotkin’s campaign focused on claims about AT&T, Rogers was also a risk analyst for Nokia’s American subsidiary from 2016 to 2024. The larger multinational corporation, Nokia, is headquartered in Finland. As a risk analyst, Rogers provided "advice and guidance on business and security risks to senior company leaders," Gustafson said, and had no connection to its Chinese ventures.

Until January, Nokia partnered with Huawei in a joint ownership of Chinese tech company TD Tech. Nokia was the majority owner with 51%. Nokia sold its stake in January to a group of Chinese companies . 

It’s unlikely that Rogers’ role with Nokia’s American division would have been connected to its parent company’s ventures in China, Segal said. 

"If they’re maintaining good cybersecurity, that joint venture is not connected in any way to the networks that Nokia US is using," Segal said. 

In an ad, Slotkin’s campaign said Rogers was "helping Chinese companies get access to the U.S." 

Rogers worked for AT&T while it was pursuing deals with Chinese phone companies to sell their devices in the U.S. But Rogers’ role was separate from those business decisions, the company said, and there’s no evidence he was involved. 

We rate this claim False.
