Yes, you're right about the Quebec government. As I mentioned, it intervenes, but without any real ammunition, since this is an area of federal jurisdiction. This means that the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, or CRTC, or the industry, meets with Bell Canada in a systematic way. Here and elsewhere, it would be a matter of using regulatory power to force Bell Canada to use the necessary means to promote competition.
Earlier, I had the opportunity to answer a question from your colleague regarding third-party Internet access services, or TPIA. The CRTC has effectively applied this in the case of resellers. So there is regulatory power, but you have to have the courage to use it. Competition drives prices down. This has been demonstrated for a long time. If we prevent the public from having access to other choices, and therefore to competition, prices will remain high and products will unfortunately continue to be of poor quality.
The infrastructure is owned by Bell Canada. I didn't necessarily have the opportunity to say this earlier, but here in Quebec, we can compare the situation. In fact, the pole infrastructure is owned by two companies: Hydro-Québec and Bell Canada. Why is it that we have no problem, or so little, with Hydro-Québec, with whom we don't compete because we don't sell electricity, but we have to deal all the time with the objections of Bell Canada, with whom we compete and who obviously prefers to sell the service? Bell Canada is always late. If it can hold back investment, unfortunately, it's the public who suffers the consequences.
