Least Competive Markets

Both the Canadian and American markets are the least competitive and most overpriced in the OECD.

Instead of the costs of the services coming down, they're actually increasing and providing less for it too.

Canadians are more vicious and the pioneers of this stuff.

Our probably most evil telco, ATT, is a mere amateur to some of the stuff that occurs up north.

Like if LCD monitor sizes kept getting smaller and the price kept going up.

Both markets suffer from a severe lack of competition, due to this hands off governmental approach in the markets. When you compare the market to Europe or even the Aussies, our services look like an absolute joke.

The Aussies are probably closest to the Canadians and their market and the options (services) available are blowing them out of the water; particularly as their nation wholesale NBN FTTH roll-out ramps up.

I came up with my saying because it seems to imply that I was born yesterday. Purely intentional

I wouldn't say it's a hands off approach.

It's the who is paying for the hands of change.

Hint - it aint us
