I will turn it over to Geoff to speak to certain ramifications or the limits of the CRTC with regard to the telecom act, but we have found that, for the most part, when we approach the CRTC for disputes such as those, these take a long time to resolve. The process is very complicated and the CRTC is reluctant to sort of point out the obvious. I'll even give a recent example, although it is broader than just your riding. It happened during the early stage of the pandemic.
When we approached the CRTC and said there is a problem, because we don't have the capacity and need help, and approached the government through ISED, we were told, “Work with the big carriers. I'm sure that you guys will be able to figure this out.” The fact of the matter is that we can't work with the big carriers, because they will do everything they can to prevent us from existing, and in doing so, stopping competition.
So, unfortunately, I don't have much hope that the CRTC can weigh in on things like that as fast as required to preserve competition.
