Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for appearing before the committee.
We know that wireless prices are going down. The data shows it. It's practically undeniable. I'd like to thank the witnesses. I believe in giving credit where credit is due. I'll also give credit to the current industry minister and the previous industry minister for their work on this file.
My question is for Mr. Bibic with regard to Bell Media. Earlier this year, we heard that Bell Media was cutting 4,800 jobs. The company was selling 45 of its radio stations. This is on top of the cuts from last June, when 1,300 jobs were cut and I think nine different radio stations. Bell Media went on the record to say that it's blaming regulators and policy-makers for these cuts. I felt that there was a bit of scapegoating going on.
In this age of misinformation and disinformation, where we see democratic backsliding across the world, where democracies are being targeted by misinformation, wouldn't you agree, Mr. Bibic, that media companies have a role to play? You're still making billions of dollars. These companies are very profitable. Wouldn't you agree that companies have a bit of a role to play to make sure that our news infrastructure stays intact so that we can fight against that misinformation and disinformation?
