I would just like to add that every time a company buys frequencies, it must pay additional fees. When additional fees are paid, consumers end up with higher rates so that the company can turn a profit. When the government sold new frequencies a year and a half ago, it really opened the market to competition, and it even set aside 25% of frequencies for new market players. In Canada, there are mechanisms for fostering competition and enabling new players to enter the market, but I could never understand the rush to fling the doors wide open.
Earlier, the gentleman said that we need not concern ourselves about the Canadian content carried by these companies. I would just say that convergence is real. If users own iPhones and subscribe to Bell or another company, they have access to TV programs. To what extent will we be able to ensure that Canadian content is available to these users in the future? This is an important issue.
