Following a review, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission says that the best way to promote competition is the current approach in which it sets rates for wholesalers, such as TekSavvy, based on the service and infrastructure costs to the major players, plus a markup.
The CRTC described its current approach as "forward-looking, which results in rates that reflect expected market conditions, including the technology used, over a period of time." The Competitive Network Operators of Canada, which represents independent internet providers, applauded the CRTC's decision, saying it was optimistic that the guidance would lead to reduced wholesale rates.
The Canadian Telecommunications Association, which represents organizations that invest in, build, maintain and operate telecom services, said it is reviewing the decision and declined to comment further.
