Absolutely.

You've mentioned the explosion of the Internet. You also mentioned in your presentation that 14% of users represent 80% of the Internet traffic. But surely no one would consider that to be a static number with the explosion of the Internet, the emergence of the digital age, the streaming of video onto our BlackBerrys, and the watching of TV on the Internet.

That number will dramatically change and shift, and very soon, in the very near future. Should decisions of the CRTC not be forward looking? Should they not consider and anticipate the direction that technology is going in?
