File Under “They Just Don’t Get It”: CRTC struggling to rein in rising phone, TV prices
Today CBC.ca carried a story about the poor ol’ CRTC trying to rein in rising prices for cell phone and cable TV services. They can’t seem to grasp the fact that the very monopolies they have created are to blame for the out-of-control pricing of cell service and cable TV in Canada. The only ‘price control’ that works is an open and competitive free market that allows consumers to choose their suppliers.
The CRTC is out-of-touch and irrelevant: scrap it and open up the cell phone and cable TV markets to competition.
