Canada’s competition watchdog wants the CRTC to move away from promoting facilities-based competition as the only means of promoting telecommunications competition in the country. In comments to AT&T Canada Corp.’s appeal to Cabinet of the price cap decision (Telecom Decision 2002-34), the Competition Bureau notes that telecommunications competition hasn’t worked under the current facilities-based framework and the commission should consider implementing a hybrid model combining resale with facilities-based competition.
