== History ==
Rogers Wireless was founded by David Margolese, Ted Rogers, Marc Belzberg and Philippe de Gaspé Beaubien.〔Caroline Van Hasselt, ''High Wire Act: Ted Rogers and the Empire That Debt Built'', Mississauga, Ontario: John Wiley & Sons, 2008, chapter 12.〕 In 1978, future Sirius XM Radio founder David Margolese dropped out of college and founded the paging company Canadian Telecom.〔Bethany McLean, (“Satellite Killed the Radio Star,” ) ''Fortune'', January 22, 2001.〕 Foreseeing that cellular wireless technology would be used for more than simply voice calls,〔 Margolese proposed a plan to obtain a license for Canada’s cellular phone rights.〔 At the time, there were no such licenses or commercial cellular services in existence, as the wireless technology was still in the laboratory and experimental.〔 Needing significant financing, he approached Rogers Communications, which was owned by Ted Rogers, to partner with him.〔〔 Rogers ultimately joined with Margolese, Marc Belzberg of First City Financial and Telemedia founder Philippe de Gaspé Beaubien to form Cantel,〔 which Margolese named after Canadian Telecom.〔Van Hasselt, ''High Wire Act: Ted Rogers and the Empire That Debt Built'', chapter 12, p. 223.〕 In 1984, the group was granted Canada’s national cellular license.〔 Cantel launched service on July 1, 1985.〔Iain Marlow, (“A phone so big it came with its own luggage,” ) ''The Globe and Mail'', July 2, 2010.〕
In 1986, Ted Rogers purchased a controlling stake in Cantel, which was at the time Canada’s only national supplier of cellular telephone service.〔Brian Banks, (“Cantel buy gets Rogers into telecommunications,” ) ''Ottawa Citizen'', June 4, 1986.〕 Over the next four years, Rogers bought out his partners, becoming the sole owner of Cantel.〔(“Rogers Communications Inc. History,” ) fundinguniverse.com. Accessed May 12, 2003.〕 Cantel was later renamed Cantel AT&T, Rogers Cantel AT&T and Rogers AT&T Wireless; in December 2003, the company became known by its current name, Rogers Wireless,〔 which led to Rogers purchasing AT&T’s 34% stake in the company for $1.8 billion the following year.〔(“AT&T Wireless Moves to Sell Stake in Rogers Communications,” ) ''Wall Street Journal'', September 7, 2004.〕〔(“A look at wireless milestones,” ) ''The Globe and Mail'', July 2, 2010.〕
