Comment
This proposed bill is reckless, breaks the Conservatives' promise to leave the Greenbelt alone, and also harms consumers by repealing the Wireless Services Agreement Act. Ontarians deserve an environment that is cared for by both its governments, its businesses, and its citizens. Why should citizens be the only stewards for the environment of Ontario?
The Wireless Services Agreement Act protected the rights of consumers in Ontario who already pay some of the highest cell phone bills anywhere in the world. Why do the big telecommunications companies need protection by our government when they already have a monopoly over us? If you truly want to bring competitiveness to our market, you would remove their monopoly and force them to be truly competitive for our business. But no, the priority of the Conservative government seems to be to scratch the backs of developers and the telecommunications giants rather than acting in the best interests of its citizens.
This bill is poorly thought out and irresponsible.
