According to your recommendations, a minimum of four suppliers is required to foster healthy competition. In a remote region like mine, in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, there is only one wholesale service provider and several wholesale service distributors. It is very difficult to have this minimum number of suppliers, even if it is desirable.
In your opinion, should the wholesale service provider be independent of distributors so that it does not offer better prices to its subsidiary or to itself? Could this independence between the distributors and the provider be part of the solution to make the Internet more affordable in remote areas?
