Industry committee  Absolutely.

Industry committee  Absolutely.

Industry committee  I would say that it's a product that appeals to the tech-savvy guys, to younger people who do not need a call centre. In fact, they don't like call centres. They want to take care of themselves. They go on the web. They order what they want. They can fix their problems. There is

Industry committee  Rogers-Shaw is more about the Internet than the cable business. They spin off the wireless business and we acquire it. The cable and Internet access will be more competitive in the future. As you know, Telus is the telecom operator on the western side. Will they force more compet

Industry committee  There is no doubt about this. I'll show you something that I think is interesting. Obviously, as you can imagine, we're looking at prices every day and at competitors' prices. These are promotions...well, not promotions but proposals by Bell. It started at $85 for 25 gigabytes.

Industry committee  Yes. That was last year. This year, for 75 gigabytes, it's $65. You have more gigs at a lower price. Why? It's because Freedom Mobile is there and is reducing the prices. They have no choice but to follow or lose customers.

Industry committee  Again, you know, it's not me. It's StatsCan. StatsCan is saying it.

Industry committee  Yes, this is what they're saying. The CRTC said the same, and the industry also. The CRTC is probably less political than industry. StatsCan, I hope, is not political at all.

Industry committee  You're right to mention backhaul, but we negotiated this out of the transaction with Rogers. Jean-François, maybe you have other things to mention there. We look forward, as I mentioned earlier, to having a regulated price that will make sense for competing on the bundled aspec

Industry committee  I remember that Mr. Masse, in a previous committee, asked if spectrum was a factor for speculation because we've been seeing some holders selling it. The funny thing is that we sold some spectrum to Shaw, which we've now bought back. At the end of the day, we're using the spectru

Industry committee  I'm not going to be able to give you a number for that. What I will tell you, first of all, is that there were many spectrum auctions. Some of the spectrum licences are more used than others. A spectrum auction took place in 2008 and 2012, so you have many of those. Some would b

Industry committee  Well, it also depends on the scale and size of your market and the number of customers you will serve.

Industry committee  The shorter the amortization schedule you use, the bigger the proportion will be. Today there is some spectrum that was given, not even paid and not even auctioned by the incumbents, in 1985. Is this fully amortized? Certainly. Is it still used? Absolutely. So what is the propo

Industry committee  This is a big debate. We try to establish rates and costs. To do this, there are several formulas and several scenarios. You're right, sir, these people always say the same thing. It's all talk. They tell us that the country is big and that they need more towers. Everyone knows

Industry committee  It would certainly be profitable. It's like when these operators say they're going to stop investing. We're so used to this kind of talk, it's always the same thing. Do you think for a moment that they're going to stop investing? There isn't a company that's going to stop invest
