Freedom Mobile has launched new wireless plans in Manitoba, significantly reducing data costs for residents. The carrier, which has been in the province for less than a year, introduced three new 60GB plans and enhanced roaming features. The $39/month plan includes 60GB of data and a one-time 5GB Roam Beyond feature usable in over 100 countries. Other new plans include a $49/month option with 60GB and 15GB Roam Beyond, and a $59/month plan with 60GB and 25GB Roam Beyond. These updates align with the CRTC’s MVNO framework, allowing Freedom Mobile to offer competitive pricing similar to other provinces.
