According to this Global News article <https://globalnews.ca/news/9616141/what-to-know-ttc-rogers-cell-network/>, Freedom is the only carrier offering the service now and will continue to do so.

Freedom has a national network of towers (including the closest one to my home) and has agreements with other carriers outside their area. Their current 5G deal offers seamless national service, though they warn that the phone could report roaming outside its own network.
