Amid Russia’s ongoing illegal invasion of Ukraine, Vidéotron is suspending all long-distance calling charges for calls made from Canada to the country.
The long-distance charge-free calling initiative is effective immediately and will run until March 31st, 2022.
“The charges will be automatically cancelled for all residential, business and mobile accounts,” reads Vidéotron’s release about the initiative. “Customers do not need to contact Videotron before placing a call to Ukraine.”
It’s unclear if other Canadian carriers will make similar offers to customers.
