Bell Volunteers To Self Destruct

Bell threatens to withhold network upgrades



Bell may refuse to upgrade to next-generation networks if the Canadian government does not concede to demands, a statement from the company proposes. The country's telecommunications regulator, the CRTC, recently issued a ruling that would require the company to open up its next-generation networks to competitors. Bell is only one of two national Internet service providers in Canada however, and would likely gain no more than diminished profits if forced to cope with competition.


We demand that you not force us to compete with anyone , or we won't upgrade our network.

Ok then , so ... not upgrading your network to stay competative means everyone flocks to someone else. Thus you go belly up. And since Bell is a scum bag rip off company in the first place , I shed no tears on this matter.

Still waiting to hear the bad news. It sounds like they're making some kind of threat ... but I don't see them doing anything I don't want them to do. Maybe if they threatenned to stay in business people might be worried ?
