Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Industry.
On December 20, the minister stated that he did not want the rate restructuring in the field of telecommunications to be done at the expense of accessibility. The minister said: "Accessibility is currently not at stake and we will make sure that it will not be in the future".
Since the minister and the CRTC authorized significant increases in the cost of local services, with more to come, what measures is
the minister contemplating to make sure local services remain affordable for everyone?
