My summary is currently the valuation supports a buy except what is unknown is the wholesale price that the CRTC will set for wireless resale which if they don't get it  right, will affect the top end of telecom pricing which has been unaffected at present and if this happens, then drastic decisions by telecoms will have to be made.

Without CRTC as an intermediate actor, the usual rule  would apply, the answer to low prices is low prices.

WIRELESS is really just important as food, but is the CRTC oblivious of this fact? THE FIRST PURCHASE OF A NEW IMMIGRANT TO CANADA IS TO PURCHASE A CELL PHONE AND SO GOES THE REST OF CANADA...

The CRTC has certainly waded in a cesspool here that it cannot win ... I would hate to be one of these commissioners of the CRTC! Who are the commissioners of the CRTC? https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/acrtc/organ.htm

Well not sure what a new immigrants do but I can tell you what old immigrant does. I have a cell phone  with Public mobile ( Telus)  50 G calling , texting, sms  US/CANADA  $38.42 , so my wife  ,high speed internet with Rogers $ 56.49 , cable for free, home phone for $2 a month . The governments ,insurances, telecommunications companies,banks are not friends of mine. Not

The package i have with Rogers would cost $40+ a month more with Bell starting with their home phone. I guess the fibre they deivered to my house will remain coiled up  Certainly wish they would stop calling. GLTA
