Canada

Keep repeating that Canada has one of the highest rates for communications for consumers in the world

Australia is comparable to us ... relatively small population with a large land mass ... and they have better and cheaper communications than us. If you want to argue that it's the landscape and environment ... the nordic countries are in the Arctic circle and they provide better and cheaper data services for their customers.

The biggest issue we have here is monopolies and when you give these companies full control ... they will never want to change the status quo and they will never do anything to help people or give better rates ... they will always balance how much to take from people by how much those people are willing to be fleeced ... so far we have been very compliant, which is why everything persists.

It's one thing to say you've been robbed ... it's another thing to just sit there and continue to be robbed.

Time to split Bell into 4 companies.

The "last mile" should have been owned by a public utility.

These games would not exist

It’s worth noting that Bibic has a history of threatening to pull investments whenever the government does something he doesn’t like. Earlier this year, Bibic suggested there would be “unintended consequences” if the government and CRTC pushed more regulations on the big telecom companies, and Bell joined other telcos in threatening investments over a wholesale ruling in 2019.

They would likely be forced to build more infrastructure to support the increased demand. Boo hoo spending on infrastructure instead of c-level pockets.

Screw Bell. Nationalize telecoms.
