Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you very much to the witnesses for being here today.
We've heard a lot over the last few weeks about how quickly things in the telecom industry are changing. It seems that demographics are changing all across the country. I know in Oshawa, where I'm from, I talk to young people, and they don't even have a land line any more. They all have their cellphone. They love their cellphone. They take it everywhere they go. They send text messages to their friends. It doesn't matter where they are, they can utilize this great technological advance.
In Atlantic Canada, we've had some witnesses--we've had somebody from EastLink and we've had satellite companies--that seem to be really raring to go for competition. In the Atlantic region, do you think the area as a whole--the consumer--will benefit from deregulation?
