In Telecom Decision 97-8, the Commission determined, among other things, that a competitive local exchange carrier (CLEC) would have to meet a number of notification requirements and file certain documents before it could begin offering local services in an exchange. Such requirements include (in part) the following: filing a letter of intention to offer local services in a new exchange prior to negotiating the necessary interconnection arrangements and completing the required testing for the proposed exchange; filing Schedule C of the Master Agreement for Local Interconnection (MALI) for the Commission’s approval, pursuant to Telecom Decision 2007- 129; filing a notification letter, once the requirements imposed on CLECs in Telecom Decision 97-8 and subsequent decisions have been satisfied, along with a map of the proposed serving area; and serving the documentation filed with the Commission on all Canadian carriers that currently provide services in the exchange where the CLEC is proposing to provide service. 1. In the Policy Direction,1 the Governor in Council required, among other things, that when relying on regulation, the Commission use measures that are efficient and proportionate to their purpose and that interfere with the operation of competitive market forces to the minimum extent necessary to meet the policy objectives. 1 Order Issuing a Direction to the CRTC on Implementing the Canadian Telecommunications Policy Objectives, P.C.

  • Cologix Torix Case Study
    Internet Exchange Case Study The Toronto Internet Exchange (TorIX) is the largest IX in Canada with more than 175 peering participants benefiting from lower network costs & faster speeds The non-profit Toronto Internet Exchange (TorIX) is a multi-connection point enabling members to use one hardwired connection to exchange traffic with 175+ members on the exchange. With peering participants swapping traffic with one another through direct connections, TorIX reduces transit times for local data exchange and cuts the significant costs of Internet bandwidth. The success of TorIX is underlined by its tremendous growth, exceeding 145 Gbps as one of the largest IXs in the world. TorIX is in Cologix’s data centre at 151 Front Street, Toronto’s carrier hotel and the country’s largest telecommunications hub in the heart of Toronto. TorIX members define their own routing protocols to dictate their traffic flow, experiencing faster speeds with their data packets crossing fewer hops between the point of origin and destination. Additionally, by keeping traffic local, Canadian data avoids international networks, easing concerns related to privacy and security. Above: In Dec. 2014, TorIX traffic peaked above 140 Gbps, with average traffic hovering around 90 Gbps. Beginning Today Launched in July 1996 Direct TorIX on-ramp in Cologix’s151 Front Street Ethernet-based, layer 2 connectivity data centre in Toronto TorIX-owned switches capable of handling Second largest independent IX in North America ample traffic Operated by telecom industry volunteers IPv4 & IPv6 address provided to each peering Surpassed 145 Gbps with 175+ peering member to use on the IX participants, including the Canadian Broke the 61 Gbps mark in Jan.

Delivering a minimum speed of: ▪ 50Mbps download and 10Mbps upload, for wired technologies. ▪ 25Mbps download and 5Mbps upload for wireless technologies. (Federal standard regulations) Currently about 70% of homes and businesses have access to high speed internet. The quality and condition of existing community broadband infrastructure will factor into how quickly providers can upgrade existing technology or Develop Nova install new technology. Satellite service will still have data caps. Scotia Update In many cases the population density does not offset capital investment for fibre. 10 pre-qualified internet service providers were invited to submit proposals for this request for proposals- a second round of five pre-qualified providers is approved and all 15 are eligible to respond to all future request for proposals. Develop Nova Scotia put out a call for high-speed Internet projects in May 2019 the call closed June 28, 2019. The approved projects from the first round were announced on February 7th, 2020. Successful first round projects were those that could be implemented within 6-12 months – to get connections happening as quickly as possible. Round 1 RFP results will see approximately 42,000 homes and businesses connected (or existing connections improved).

Rogers thanks the Department for the opportunity to provide input on this important issue. Yours very truly, Howard Slawner Vice President – Regulatory Telecom HS/pg Attach.

January 25, 2019 Rogers Communications Consultation on Licence Fees for Fixed January 25, 2018 Point-to-Point Radio Systems (DGSO-001-18) Executive Summary E1. Spectrum costs in Canada are amongst the highest in the world, for both acquisition and annual fees, which reduces capital for network investments to continue expanding coverage in rural areas or deploy innovative 5G wireless equipment. Rogers believes this consultation is an opportunity to foster both innovation and competition between facilities-based networks, rebalancing the playing field between those operators that may experience a much greater need for wireless backhaul and those that emerged from local telephone monopolies.
