France may think Apple is up to no good with its carrier deals for the iPhone, but you won't hear similar gripes from Canada. The country's Competition Bureau has determined that there isn't "sufficient evidence" to show that Apple had illegally strong-armed carriers into deals that gave it preferred treatment. While there's no question that the iPhone is a "must-have" for carriers, the regulator says, the terms only have a minor effect at most -- there's plenty of competition, and ditching Apple's agreements wouldn't significantly change the playing field.
