Quebecor – Celebrating 30 Years
For nearly two decades, StrategyCorp has played an important role in Quebecor’s expansion and success in Canada’s highly regulated telecommunications and media landscape. As the fourth-largest telecom player in the country, Quebecor has consistently driven competition and affordability for consumers—outcomes that have been shaped through strategic government relations and advocacy.
In 2007, Quebecor, through its wireless company Videotron, sought to break into the national telecommunications sector by securing spectrum access, a critical asset required to operate wireless services. At the time, the industry was dominated by three incumbents—Bell, Telus, and Rogers—who historically controlled spectrum auctions, making market entry nearly impossible for new competitors.
StrategyCorp worked closely with Quebecor’s leadership and other new entrants to advocate for policy changes like a set-aside of spectrum for new competitors. As a result, Quebecor secured its place in the Canadian telecom market, offering affordable wireless services and disrupting the status quo.
Since then, StrategyCorp has continued to support Quebecor’s strategic growth. The firm has provided government relations expertise, guided regulatory engagement, and helped position Quebecor in policy discussions. From advocating for new telecom competition policies to supporting geographic expansion and acquisitions—such as its successful bid for Freedom Mobile—StrategyCorp has been a trusted advisor at every stage of Quebecor’s journey.
Beyond telecom, StrategyCorp has helped Quebecor navigate broader political and regulatory challenges. Whether facilitating discussions with policymakers or maintaining Quebecor’s relationships with government during leadership transitions, StrategyCorp has remained a cornerstone of Quebecor’s long-term success in Canada’s evolving digital economy.
