CCI Wireless acquired by Xplornet

On October 1, 2020, Xplornet Communications Inc., Canada's largest rural-focused broadband service provider, closed the acquisition of Corridor Communications Inc., which operates CCI Wireless. Based in Calgary, Alberta, CCI Wireless provides broadband solutions to rural homes in Alberta, along with enterprise clients across western Canada.

Xplornet plans to build on existing CCI Wireless operations in Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan by retaining the company's experienced team of employees. This will deepen Xplornet's operational presence in western Canada and its close ties to rural communities in the West.  

Both proudly rooted in rural Canada, Xplornet and CCI Wireless share a commitment to expanding connectivity and supporting technological innovation in Canada's rural communities. With this acquisition, rural residents in western Canada will benefit from stronger competition and a newly-strengthened operational presence tightly connected to rural communities in western Canada.

Gowling WLG advised Corridor Communications in this transaction with a team that included Steve Will and Melanie Condic.
