Wednesday, March 9, 2016 at 11:29AM I received a phone call today from the CRTC (a real-live person) head office. Apparently they are taking Canadian citizens concerns "seriously", regarding those of us in Canada who do not have access to Hi-Speed Internet Service, as well as other communication issues some of us face.
I have been advised that I will be taking part in a Tele-Conference with the CRTC in Quebec on Monday, April 18th. Part of that conference will involve detailing our issues, challenges, not only with TELUS (Nothing) Corporation; it will also cover other areas and issues that challenge us.
I have already stated the concern we have with the exorbitant cost of Satellite connections, in lieu of the fact we do not have cable access to Internet. If you have specific issues you would like me to attempt to include with the Teleconference, please E-Mail. If that is the case, may I request you keep your input concise, short and to the point.
Note: This is part of Published Federal Government Hearings of the CRTC
The month of April will include presenter, participants for all over Canada.
April 18th is the date Thetis Island is to present, either VIA Skype, Teleconference or in person; we will participant VIA phone conferencing.
