I think all the honourable members and everyone else in this room knows that. Successive Canadian governments of all stripes have consistently put on the top of their agenda bringing Canada to the forefront of the digital economy worldwide. But the reality is that since 1994, we've actually gone backwards according to metrics of price, speed, and affordability. I think one of the reasons for that is the lack of competition. Lack of competition is bad for consumers. Lack of competition is bad for innovation, because there aren't adequate incentives. CAIP's call for a return to wholesale pricing principles is designed to ensure that we have, as much as possible, a competitive marketplace.
