    Does the CRTC do anything to help Canada at this point? They’ve allowed all telecoms/media to be merged down to 2 and a half entities. They’ve allowed cell and internet service prices to be the highest in the western world. They’ve forced CanCon rules that subsidize media monopolies while driving viewers to non-Canadian platforms. And now they are going to drive other services out of Canada at the request of those same media monopolies.
