In my riding there are more rural small towns. In terms of telephone, there's some concern being raised by some people--I have not necessarily heard it--that some of the small companies won't be able to compete. You talked a little bit earlier about the three-by-three test, or the test for protection. Can you tell us a little more about how we can have some assurances that those small companies, most of them independent, will be protected in our small rural communities?
