Wind Mobile, the startup carrier vying for market share against Canada’s major wireless providers, is pursuing a powerful ally in Google Inc. Chris Robbins, the chief branding officer for Wind, said Thursday the firm has contacted the search-engine giant about getting the Nexus One smartphone into Canada. Wind is the only carrier in the Canadian market whose network operates on the AWS spectrum band, the same band as T-Mobile USA, the carrier Google has partnered with to launch the device in the U.S.
