Rogers blinked: Hyer

Thunder Bay MP Bruce Hyer is claiming a small victory.  He says that because of his actions in parliament, communications giant Rogers has ended its cell phone locking policy.  That policy kicks in at the end of a contract and prevents owners from keeping their old phone if they want to switch providers.  Hyer says it's nice to win one for a change.    He says he got discouraged after the Senate killed his climate change bill, but now feels like he's making a difference.
