Mr. Bibic, I don't know how long your company has been involved with playing catch-up with the Googles and the Yahoos and others of this world, but I'm wondering if, in some of your calculations here, what you're really doing is complaining over the fact that a new business has been created on your platform--competition—and as a result of their lead in these areas, you are now playing catch-up.
To do that, you have a plaint here with the CRTC and you have a policy direction that basically stopped any competition by leaving the incumbents, both cable and telephone, where they are; I think you can speak just to telephone for now. Now we find ourselves in a situation where you're crying blue that you need more money and that you want to make greater investments by simply throttling off and choking off effective competitors who are providing service at the exact time when the Minister of Industry has said that we have to transform ourselves into the digital world.
If you understand the levels of increase in the number of connectivities and people using the Internet, and the quality and richness of that Internet, how is it possible that you can come here today and defend a charge over 25 gigabytes when it has no bearing on the actual cost that your company has to incur in order to provide that service?
Coming from a company that's had a 120-year advantage, I find it a little rich for you to be here to claim that somehow you need to have these kinds of changes that not only are onerous to consumers; they also will ultimately stifle innovation.
That's the charge, Mr. Bibic. I want you to answer it.
