Why do people put up with that? It seems that market is prime ground for a crafty entrepreneur to come in and offer a better product. It's not like the bar has been set high at all, so pretty much a fart would put you ahead of Rogers. |

As such, all investment would most likely have to come from inside Canada unless said investors were willing to take a minority stake and have no control.

 bt join:2009-02-26 canada kudos:1 | reply to Al3sinth The 15GB cap is for a 3mbps/256kbps connection, so it would actually take ~10.5 hours to go into overages with it.
(Because that's soooooooo much better...) |

 | 15 gigs is over 200,000 emails! Or over 5,000 songs! Or 100,000 pictures! Why would ANYONE need anything more than that?
Or wait, not even a 720p blu-ray movie...
I hate when they use absurd comparisons to how much a cap is. -- The early bird catches the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. CPL:IA;ASEL/AMEL. CFI:ASE/AME; IA |

 fiberguyMy views are my own.Premium join:2005-05-20 kudos:3 | reply to n2jtx You DO have say... it's your right to put money into it and make a return, or you pull out and sell off.
In a way, I agree with what Canada does... maybe Canada likes to be owned by Canada and not be the big ol' US of A which is owned by a lot of foreign country's interests.
The US decided to put up the old' "for sale" sign years ago.. |
