Every year, on the only roads they can use to get to work or school, people die for lack of access to cellular coverage. This happens in ridings like that of my colleague Marilène Gill, in the Côte-Nord region. We really must pull out all the stops to solve this problem.
In Quebec, we've pulled out all the stops for Internet coverage. As you said, the provincial government went ahead before the federal government, because they thought the federal government was stalling a bit. Then the money was transferred to the province and everything was done properly.
For cellular coverage, however, there's still a great deal to do. Many of these companies operate on a national scale. Even if a fourth player enters the arena, so to speak, these companies are operating nationally.
Why not require them to cover entire territories, rather than handing them highly lucrative parts of the market? Why not be a little tougher on certain companies that might dictate their cellular coverage?
