And Canadian prices are fairly positioned too. … (said with a trace of sarcasm applied.)

We know there is enough comeptition in Canada because:
- Our homes are connected by fibre
- We have unlimited bandwidth on our Internet connections
- The price we pay for Internet/TV/landlines/cellphones is lower than other countries and dropping
- No-one hesitates to access the net on their phone fo fear of what their next bill will be
- We don’t pay extra for texting or sending cell photos
- There is so much capacity that Internet throttling would never happen

Chris Anderson of Wired must excuse Canadians if we are not totally convinced about connectivity and storage becoming to cheap to meter.

:cry: Do you love people who love bullys. Who rope others in with 2 year contracts. Never able to get out. Do you love parents who tell their adult children over 21 what they to do!! Do you see what kind of control these giants have over their empires?? Where is the market place when they control all the stalls.!! All the lines and airways wireless systems etc. And you love these parental organizations??
