Our first step into wireless communications occurred in the mid-1980s, when we
launched our Communications Group. By acquiring majority ownership in Glenayre
Electronics., a company firmly established in its markets and rapidly expanding
into new areas of communications technology, TCGI quickly gained a strong
presence in the wireless communications industry. Glentel Inc. is continually
breaking new ground and is one of Canada's leading wireless integrated solution
providers. The company has become a leader in satellite services for government
and industry, and in providing communications solutions for its customers by
integrating products and services utilizing mobile two-way dispatch, paging,
data, satellite, cellular and PCS to meet a broad range of customer
applications. The company's expanding network of WirelessWave™, Tbooth®/ La Cabine T™
and WIRELESS etc.® retail stores
offers personal communication products and services for today's sophisticated
consumer and small business owner. Telecommunications is a multibillion dollar
industry that impacts the way we work, live and play. Our expansion into
leading-edge communications technology brings us forward, preparing us for the
future. It's a natural extension of our ongoing operations within the Automotive
Group.
