One would think that the current Liberal CRTC would be better at maintaining competition than the previous Conservative CRTC, and yet here we are. start.ca is now telus, and teksavvy is soon to be.... Rogers? Bell? Viacom?
Fuck it, bring on Starlink!
It's sad when I could likely get faster and more reliable internet connected to a satellite than over cables hooked directly to my house. You'd think living in a more major city in a sprawling suburban residential area would get you reasonably reliable internet, but not even that is the case. Is it too much to ask CRTC to allow some competition?!?!
Now, would I rather give money to Bell/Rogers/Telus or to Elon Musk? Damn, that's not an easy choice.
One would think, except politics is a farce these days, both sides of the coin are corrupt as hell. Pierre Trudeau probably rolling in his grave
