I was thinking about that as I was preparing for this committee. I personally would feel more comfortable with the efficiencies defence if it applied to firms that had a real intention to engage in international commerce and were trying to scale up in Canada so they could perform on the world stage.
It's not clear to me how or if Shaw and Rogers are planning to do that and, as I mentioned before, it's not clear how some of the other firms that have benefited from this defence have leveraged that opportunity to increase Canada's competitiveness internationally.
