Rogers claims 50% 5G population coverage; network reaches Nova Scotia

Rogers Communications has expanded its 5G mobile network to parts of Halifax, Nova Scotia, with further expansion to neighbouring communities expected soon. Rogers highlights that it remains the sole 5G network operator in the Atlantic Canada provinces, where its 5G services are also available in twelve communities across New Brunswick.

Rogers also disclosed that in total, its 5G network – launched in March 2020 – now covers 'half of the Canadian population', with availability in over 700 communities nationwide. The operator is committed to reach 1,000 5G communities by year end.
