Canadian Media Concentration Research Project (CMCRP). doi:10.22215/ cmcrp/2018.2. www.cmcrp.org i Media and Internet Concentration in Canada, 1984-2017 Executive Summary This report examines the state of competition in the mobile wireless market, internet access, broadcast, pay and streaming TV services, internet advertising, advertising across all media, newspapers, browsers, online news sources, search, social media, operating systems, etc. in Canada over the period from 1984 until 2017. We call the sum-total of these media “the network media economy”. We then use two common metrics—Concentration Ratios and the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI)—to deter- mine whether these markets—individually and collectively—are competitive or concen- trated. This year’s report adds a whole new section on advertising spending across all media in Canada, i.e. TV, radio, online, newspapers, magazines and out-of-doors. In addition, and for the second year now, this report delves deeper into the state of competition in local and regional mobile wireless, retail internet access and “cable TV” services. We examine the state of mobile wireless competition where the big three national carri- ers—Rogers, Bell and Telus—now face strong regional rivals in most provinces across the country from, for example, Videotron (Quebec and Ottawa), Freedom Mobile (Ontar- io, Alberta, BC), Eastlink (Atlantic provinces) and SaskTel (Saskatchewan). We show that competition has improved considerably in Quebec, for example, where Videotron has carved out a 13% market share for itself in the mobile wireless market (and about 15% based on subscribers). Since being acquired by Shaw, Freedom Mobile has also expanded its subscriber base from 940,000 in 2016 to 1.1 million last year earli- er, while its revenue jumped from $490 million to $605 million over the same period. Its share of the national wireless market also jumped from 2.1% to 2.4%, while in Ontario, Alberta and BC where it operates, it has carved out an estimated market share of be- tween 5% and 6%. Nonetheless, however, the big three national carriers’ market share actually increased in 2017, mostly due to Bell’s acquisition of MTS. Concentration levels are even higher in local retail internet access and cable TV mar- kets, where the legacy cable companies and telecoms operators generally account for 87% and nearly 100% of the market, respectively. In short, there are strong reasons for concern in all these markets. Now is not the time to let up on policy measures that have begun to bear at least some fruit, and perhaps good reason to double-down on them— whether the CRTC will do that, however, is increasingly looking doubtful and mixed messages are coming from other quarters such as the Competition Bureau and Innova- tion, Science and Economic Development. We also identify features of the network media economy that set Canada apart from other countries. In this regard, two things stand out: the sky-high levels of diagonal in- tegration and the extremely high levels of vertical integration that exist in this country.

  • Nurturing Media Vitality in Quebec's English-Speaking Minority
    Brief to the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage Nurturing Media Vitality in Quebec’s English-speaking Minority Communities Presented by the Quebec Community Groups Network April 12, 2016 Introduction The Quebec Community Groups Network, or QCGN, is a not-for-profit representative organization. We serve as a centre of evidence-based expertise and collective action. QCGN is focused on strategic issues affecting the development and vitality of Canada’s English linguistic minority communities, to which we collectively refer as the English-speaking community of Quebec. Our 48 members are also not-for-profit community groups. Most provide direct services to community members. Some work regionally, providing broad-based services. Others work across Quebec in specific sectors such as health, and arts and culture. Our members include the Quebec Community Newspaper Association (QCNA). English-speaking Quebec is Canada’s largest official language minority community. A little more than 1 million Quebecers specify English as their first official spoken language. Although 84 per cent of our community lives within the Montreal Census Metropolitan Area, more than 210,000 community members live in other Quebec regions. Media Landscape English-speaking Quebecers have consistently signalled that access to information in their own language is both a need and a priority (CHSSN-CROP survey, various years). This may seem a bit of a contradiction in a world awash in English language information through CNN, Time magazine and Hollywood movies galore. The important nuance is that English- speaking Quebecers need information in their own language about their own local and regional communities, something that is increasingly hard to access on a consistent basis in a context of the francization of daily life in Quebec and the demise of traditional community media.

  • Independent Broadcaster Licence Renewals
    February 15, 2018 Filed Electronically Mr. Chris Seidl Secretary General Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0N2 Dear Mr. Seidl: Re: Select broadcasting licences renewed further to Broadcasting Notice of Consultation CRTC 2017-183: Applications 2017-0821-5 (Family Channel), 2017-0822-3 (Family CHRGD), 2017- 0823-1 (Télémagino), 2017-0841-3 (Blue Ant Television General Partnership), 2017-0824-9 (CHCH-DT), 2017-0820-8 (Silver Screen Classics), 2017-0808-3 (Rewind), and 2017-0837-2 (Knowledge). The Writers Guild of Canada (WGC) is the national association representing approximately 2,200 professional screenwriters working in English-language film, television, radio, and digital media production in Canada. The WGC is actively involved in advocating for a strong and vibrant Canadian broadcasting system containing high-quality Canadian programming. Given the WGC’s nature and membership, our comments are limited to the applications of those broadcasters who generally commission programming that engages Canadian screenwriters, and in particular those who significantly invest in programs of national interest (PNI). The WGC conditionally supports the renewal of the above-noted services, subject to our comments below. Executive Summary ES.1 The Commission set out its general approach to Canadian programming expenditure (CPE) and PNI requirements in Broadcasting Regulatory Policy CRTC 2015-86, Let’s Talk TV: The way forward - Creating compelling and diverse Canadian programming (the Create Policy). In it, the Commission was clear that CPE was a central pillar of the regulatory policy framework for Canadian television broadcasting, and that the guiding principle for setting CPE levels for independent broadcasters would be historical spending levels.
