Wireless nation
The introduction of the wireless or cellular phone in 1985 gave people a new life of mobility. Canadians were early adopters as cell phones became one of the fastest growing consumer products in history.
As of 2003, over 12 million Canadians subscribed to a mobile phone service. By 2005, it is estimated that more than half of all Canadians will be cell phone users.
