Data compiled by Wire Report staff using data from the companies' Q4 2016 earnings statements, except for MTS' 2016 figures, which are from its Q3 (MTS did not report its Q4 numbers because of its acquisition by Bell).

MTS' previous TV subscriber figures include non-IPTV subscribers, which the company stopped reporting in 2015 and are not inlcuded in the 106,034 figure. There were 3,699 "other" TV subscribers in 2015. Cogeco's numbers include Canadian subscribers only. The statistics for Bell's 2015 TV adds and 2016 Internet adds, as well as for Telus' 2016 Internet adds, are the difference between the numbers reportedin the Q4 each year, not on the "net activations" or "net additions" in the quarterly reports, which are based on adjusted numbers.
