Wireless Competition in Canada
Volume 7 • Issue 20 • August 2014 WIRELESS COMPETITION IN CANADA: DAMN THE TORPEDOES! THE TRIUMPH OF POLITICS OVER ECONOMICS† Jeffrey Church, Professor, Department of Economics and Director, Digital Economy Program, The School of Public Policy, University of Calgary Andrew Wilkins, Research Associate, Digital Economy Program, The School of Public Policy, University of Calgary SUMMARY Last year featured a high stakes battle between two mighty protagonists. On one side, allegedly representing the interests of all Canadians, the federal government. On the other side, Bell, Rogers, and Telus. The issue at stake: What institutions should govern the allocation of resources in the provision of wireless services? Should the outcomes — prices, quality, availability, and other terms of service — be determined by the market? Or should the government intervene? The answer to these questions should depend on the extent of competition and the ability of wireless providers to exercise inefficient market power — raise prices above their long run average cost of providing services. Do Bell, Rogers, and Telus exercise substantial inefficient market power? The accumulated wisdom of market economies is that state intervention inevitably is very costly, given asymmetries of information, uncertainty, and political pressure. At the very least the onus on those demanding and proposing government action is to provide robust evidence of the substantial exercise of inefficient market power. This paper is a contribution to the ongoing debate regarding the existence and extent of market power in the provision of wireless services in Canada. The conventional wisdom that competition in wireless services was insufficient was challenged by our earlier School of Public Policy paper.†† In that study we demonstrated that the Canadian wireless sector was sufficiently competitive.

Telecom Order CRTC 2019-288 Follow-Up to Telecom Orders 2016-396 and 2016-448 – Final Rates for Aggregated Wholesale High-Speed Access Services
Petition to the Governor in Council pursuant to Section 12 of the Telecommunications Act Re: Telecom Order CRTC 2019-288 Follow-up to Telecom Orders 2016-396 and 2016-448 – Final rates for aggregated wholesale high-speed access services By: Bragg Communications Incorporated (carrying on business as Eastlink) Cogeco Communications Inc. Rogers Communications Canada Inc. Shaw Communications Inc. Videotron Ltd. 13 November 2019 Executive Summary Canada’s major Cable Carriers (Eastlink, Cogeco, Rogers, Shaw and Videotron) file this Petition pursuant to section 12 of the Telecommunications Act to request that the Cabinet order the CRTC to reconsider its August 15, 2019 decision concerning wholesale internet access rates (Telecom Order CRTC 2019-288). The Government of Canada has made it a priority to expand broadband infrastructure and high- speed internet access to all Canadians. Access to high-speed internet services is critically important to Canada’s economy, as well as to the ability of Canadians to live, work and socialize with each other and to participate fully in society. In connecting Canadians from coast to coast, and driving economic development and innovation, the expansion of high-speed internet access is as important to Canada today as construction of railways was more than a century ago. The Cable Carriers are proud of the world-leading high-speed internet infrastructure they have built. They compete vigorously with the telephone companies to design, finance and build ever faster, more advanced and innovative networks. Moreover, they provide internet access to consumers at rates that The Economist Intelligence Unit ranks as first overall in affordability worldwide.

Executive Summary 48 This report identifies advancements that have been made in the availability of handset-based 49 location and how this can be used to improve existing E9-1-1 Phase II based locates in Canada. 50 51 The Commission established a wireless 9-1-1 location accuracy monitoring process to better 52 understand the accuracy of location information so that improvements can continue for wireless 53 location accuracy in Canada. The Commission also requested that the ESWG continue to 54 monitor and report on technical and standards developments in the wireless industry that could 55 lead to improved location accuracy results. 56 57 The introduction of Phase II location functionality in 2010 was a major advancement in providing 58 accurate locations for wireless emergency calls in Canada. In addition, location accuracy 59 monitoring has helped to understand that the majority of accurate locates are based on GPS 60 functionality. Though network calculations (trilateration) sometimes provide accurate locates, a 61 significant number of wireless emergency calls do not have accurate locates because they are 62 made in locations where these functions are not available i.e.
