Bernie, Chamo,



I agree, there are to many monopolies in Canada, Bell, Shaw, Rogers etc. They control all aspect, from production, content and delivery etc., they are trying to squeeze out others in broadcasting as well as in the telecom market.

I do not need yet another channel rammed down my throat that I do not want, and will not even watch.



The CRTC has allowed so much monopoly building it is ridiculous. They have no more concern to protecting the public interest, than having a fox guarding the hen house.

In short the CRTC is nothing more than telecom and broadcaster yes men, appointed, to sit and collect a fat pay cheque.



I have put up antenna's as I will not pay for inferior HD channels as they jam more channels per transponder and have to reduce quality.



I am slowly getting my kids to watch more regular t.v. like PBS, TVO, CBC Kids, etc and getting them off the satellite specialty kids channels.

My one time investment of $200-300 for antennas, cabling, amplifier will go alot farther than the gouging BELL is doing each month for junk channels I do not even want.



Time to speak with the almighty dollar and keep our money where it will do our families good, in our pockets and not the line the already bulging pockets of the Bell corporate fat cats.
