Bell Aliant Inc. is a communications company providing services in various areas throughout eastern Canada, as Bell Aliant throughout Atlantic Canada, and under the NorthernTel, and Télébec brands in rural areas of Ontario and Quebec.
Currently, the company operates as "Bell Aliant" (simply "Aliant" until spring 2009) in Atlantic Canada and as "Bell" in Ontario and Quebec. Similarly, the former Aliant wireless and retail networks initially operated under the "Aliant" brand in Atlantic Canada, albeit now under the direct control of Bell. Wireless services transitioned to the Bell brand in April 2008).
In Atlantic Canada, Bell Aliant's services include high-speed and dial-up internet access, wireline telephone service, and IPTV cable television. Its main competitors are the region's incumbent cable providers - EastLink (NS, rural NL and PEI) and Rogers Communications (NB and NL) who had eroded on Bell Aliant's market share until mid 2009, at which time Bell Aliant launched FibreOP, and as of mid 2011 was available to 294,000 homes and businesses in Atlantic Canada.
Services in Ontario and Quebec are similar, except that Bell Canada itself retains responsibility for all IPTV services there.
