Major Canadian telecommunications firms still unacceptably tend to lie

Canada’s monopolistic , self serving, greedy , immoral telecommunications firms
Five Canadian consumer and public interest groups say that Bell and Astral’s new proposed merger is not in the public interest and should be denied. Five Canadian consumer and public interest groups say that Bell and Astral’s new proposed merger is not in the public interest and should be denied. The Public Interest Advocacy Centre (PIAC), who also acts as counsel for the Consumers’ Association of Canada (CAC), Council of Senior Citizens’ Organization of British Columbia (COSCO), National Pensioners and Senior Citizens Federation (NPSCF) and Option consommateurs (OC) filed comments with the CRTC on Friday opposing the proposed acquisition of Astral Media Inc. by Bell Canada, a division of BCE Inc. “Increased media concentration into the hands of few large vertically integrated telecommunications and media companies will not result in more competition in the market,” said John Lawford, PIAC executive director and general counsel, in a statement. “The loss of Astral in the marketplace does not deliver more competition for consumers. Any increases to Bell’s size will further threaten the ability of independent broadcasters and broadcasting distributors to effectively compete against the highly concentrated, tight oligopoly of large media companies that own both broadcasting and distribution services.” The groups stated the deal would be bad for consumers and outlined several concerns, including:

The Public Interest Advocacy Centre (PIAC), who also acts as counsel for the Consumers’ Association of Canada (CAC), Council of Senior Citizens’ Organization of British Columbia (COSCO), National Pensioners and Senior Citizens Federation (NPSCF) and Option consommateurs (OC) filed comments with the CRTC on Friday opposing the proposed acquisition of Astral Media Inc. by Bell Canada, a division of BCE Inc. The consumer advocacy group is asking the CRTC to turn down the Bell-Astral merger for a second time, saying a bigger Bell won’t be better for competition or choice. The advocacy group says the market already isn’t meeting consumers’ expectations for choice, flexibility and affordability, and approving the deal doesn’t promise to make the situation any better.

Cogeco also still opposes revised Bell-Astral deal, saying it’s not good for consumers. “Canadian consumers of television entertainment can only expect rising costs for their viewing options on fixed and mobile platforms, more forced packaging of BCE services and less choice in the selection of services they actually wish to use,” the company said in a news release.

In Canada these days there is a big public outcry about legal tax avoidance by big firms. It also now seems obvious in retrospect that self regulation also does not work. Effective supervisions, vigilance , controls are always needed.. I also do still think it’s time to break up the telecom monopoly in Canada as these mostly still robber barrons cant be trusted with freedom on the internet or with our phones…

One sided contracts are illegal as any contract is illegal when it is either contrary to a statute or is contrary to public policy. and all illegal contracts are not enforceable. Thus if you enter into an agreement with another person and you know or have reason to suspect the bargain has some taint of illegality or immorality merely don’t take the risk and exposit it to all.

According to Canada’s Commissioner for Complaints for Telecommunications Services 2011-2012 report, wireless services topped the complaints list. In the rising flood, Telus was the only company among Canada’s big three that had a drop in complaints — 13 per cent. Bell chalked up a hike of 17 per cent and Rogers Communications complaints rose by a whopping 112 per cent. Among cable service providers, Shaw saw complaints climb 335 per cent.”

Those sly subversive foxes at the CRTC TEND STILL TO SOLELY FOR THEIR OWN INTEREST and all very very far from the pretense that is to the consumer benefit. To promote competition and to prevent market abuse by the largest players there needs to be a mix of effective oversight, and regulation to allow real competition in the marketplace to take hold with real price decreases now too
.
It is clear the rich do continually get richer by satisfying their immoral greed by drastically creaming off profits, and not fulfilling their promised responsibility by investment in adequate Customers services. It seems obvious in all retrospect that self regulation does not work where the main motive is monetary profit. Also these Profits do leave the country, that’s the problem! They tend rather to go off to tax havens and we don’t see their further benefits. The past privatisation of any of our basic essential service needs, such as telecommunication and also Medicare, in order to provide profits for a few was and is always foolish, destructive approach. We must not tolerate any further citizen suffering caused by selfish profits, and it is time to bring back all of the basic utilities and essential services back into democratic control, and to renationalise them. it’s time all of the essential services, water, energy, rail, airlines and communications were all taken back into public ownership without any recompense to those who hold the shares. They have already taken more than enough in profits and dividends.
.
Rogers, one of the largest telecom companies in the country, has found a way to block our access to affordable mobile services. We’re now looking at a future where just three mobile telecom giants could control a monopoly of the Internet and phones services, holding back progress and innovation. This is totally unacceptable.

So Now still who really protects the ordinary Canadian citizens from the too often bad, immoral firms in reality, now holding the much too many crooked firms to accountability and next falsely if there is any justice it takes years to do so.. and for decades or not much good tends to happen next anyway.. as “We Have a Coin-Operated Government” Now you would think that our public and civil servants, politicians would by now know how to deal with all of these crooks without me having to tell them and all about it still.

We really do not know who these ‘rebels’ are. Some of them may be the same ones killing US soldiers in Iraq. With Assad winning the war why would he risk using chemical weapons to kill only around 100 and risk the wrath of the west ? An estimated 100,000+ have died with regular weapons. Besides we have heard these same excuses before about WMD’s. Bad History repeats itself with Obama even.
Obama now is supporting the arming Al-Qaida infiltrated Syrian rebels. How can anything go wrong with this top-notch plan? He we becomes the thing we hate a Muslim Terrorist .Rebels now consisting of Al Qaida elements? How can this possibly not backfire? The US has already failed in Iraq with this policy.
What rather still no supporting of the rebels and secular protestors against the Dictatorial abusive Erdogan Islamist regime ?
No weapons, and no aid, we should mind our own business and look after our own, stop wasting our tax dollars! Obama is making a BIG mistake again and again.
The fact that the rebel forces have pockets of al Qaeda and Radical extremists fighting along with them should be a warning bell for what probably would happen if in fact the regime is toppled. Stay out of the fray. The Middle East is a far too volatile place today and until this region shows the rest of the world that they can control ” extremism ” we all rather should stay clear.
People need to wake up and look to the past. What do these countries labeled “axis of evil” have in common? Islamic Terrorists.
A Month ago they would not support arming the Islamic rebels because of Al Qaeda elements. Now, they will arm them and this is real stupidity under the guise of Peace making and majority of Canadians, Americans do agree here too.
There is no guarantee that the weapons will stay out of terrorist hands, but in reality they are arming the Islamic Terrorists who will come to kill us next too.. ;
http://nyti.ms/14P17I0
While it is critical that we don’t jump to conclusions by associating religious affiliation with militancy, there is no doubt that embracing an ideology of Islam that promotes extremism and violence has been a motivator for terrorism, from assassinated al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden to Army Major Nidal Hasan. Did such an ideology influence the Tsarnaev brothers? Who or what compelled them to violence? What role does Muslim culture play in this type of radicalization?

Dr. Nataros claims that members of the McGill Faculty of Medicine are attempting to defame his name because he reported an incident in which serious errors were made by senior doctors. Nataros says that the incident, which took place in November 2012, and is still under investigation by an independent ombudsmen, had near fatal consequences. “It was more than just the wrong treatment, there was a missed diagnosis that made it infinitely worse and the patient almost died,” said Nataros. “It was only very quick treatment and a transfer to a tertiary care centre that saved that patient’s life.” According to Dr. Nataros, his decision to report the errors made by senior physicians prompted these doctors to target him with a barrage of personal attacks. He notes that in a meeting last December, two of the physicians arrived with numerous letters collected from different doctors stating that they found it difficult to work with Dr. Nataros. “The accusations were that ‘Alex is challenging; ‘Alex is argumentative;’ ‘Alex does not respect authority,’” said Dr. Nataros. “But, there has never been an issue with my clinical competency or my patient care.”

‘Quebec’s anti-corruption task force suspects Porter and four high-profile executives involved in the construction of the McGill University Superhospital were part of a massive fraud conspiracy.UPAC issued arrest warrants Wednesday morning for Arthur Porter, Pierre Duhaime, Riadh Ben Aissa, Yanai Elbaz , Jeremy Morris. UPAC confirmed Wednesday that Elbaz – the former associate director general of the MUHC – is in custody and will be charged Thursday. Duhaime — the former CEO of SNC-Lavalin – will turn himself in to Surete du Quebec headquarters Thursday morning, He has already been charged with fraud. Ben Aissa — another former executive at SNC-Lavalin — has already been arrested and questioned by police for his possible role in other plots. All five are wanted for fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, and related charges.

“I work at the McGill General – the administrative staff is a NIGHTMARE – they run the hospital. They run the nurses, the support staff, the DOCTORS. Why? Because they have a strong union. You say one negative comment their way and all of a sudden you are sitting with a lawyer, a union rep, and they have disappeared for 3 months of “burnout leave”.. they have no idea what a real burnout is. Everyone, including doctors, are afraid to say the wrong word in the fear of losing their job, their license, their reputation as medical PROFESSIONALS. And it’s these same secretaries who will tell their patients the “stupid doctor is an hour late” … when in fact the doctor just ran out of an emergency case cause their was no doctor available there and the secretary was too lazy to find out where the doctor actually was. I could give many a horror story.”
.
“It’s the McGll pencil pushers who are deciding where to cut and obviously each and every one of them is necessary to deliver health care; at least in their oun minds. Perhaps it’s time the government hired a good management consultant company to look at all non-medical positions at hospitals and see if they are really necessary. There could be great savings to be poured back in to real health care.’ “Now rather get rid of 18 administrative pencil pushers instead of the nurses. Nurses are needed more than the administrative pencil pushers and the administrator earn more than the nurses… .this is a HOSPITAL, we need nurses ! ! ! “ ”It’s a huge shame that in the end, it’s the lower employees who suffer, and most importantly, the patients are paying for it.” “Fire the administrators responsible for this mess, not nurses who actually do useful work.”
‘
The least needed remain untouched while the most needed are cut. McGll’s Mr Rinfret has been at Porter elbow through this whole mess making sure the right people were met and the right doors opened, how he is still there(or actually promoted) is amazing!
I’ve never felt more sick about living in Montreal, than I do. While healthcare (and education) are seriously underfunded, we are overtaxed. While the average citizen suffers, the corrupt politicians, the engineers, the city bureaucrats and the mob prosper. Taxpayer money ends up stuffed in political party safes, in off-shore accounts and mafia coffers. I only wish that the Harper Feds would step in and seize control of Quebec and Montreal. Our municipal and provincial leaders have sold us down the drain and we have let them get away with this. Quebec has more similarities with a third world country than it does with the Western world and I doubt it will ever change. I just want to get out of here and never come back, even to visit.

“Furthermore, it is clear that the superhospital will be a smaller building with fewer beds and resources,” the group adds. “Many services have been abandoned, outpatient facilities will be minimal and many medical units still have no idea of how they will be accommodated in the new hospital. The health implications of these changes in hospital function have not yet been addressed.”
Dr. David Morris, a professor of medicine, obstetrics and gynecology at McGill said in an interview. “These disasters do not occur overnight.” Dr. Andrey Cybulsky, chief of nephrology at the MUHC, said he decided to sign the comment piece because he objects to the MUHC’s “top-down planning process without really much consultation.” its.
Gwendolyn Nacos, a member of the board of directors who was elected by the population, declined to comment on the letter, saying the policy of the board does not allow for individual members to comment to the news media.

Not much of a surprise? The tip of the iceberg is being revealed only as the overall depth of corruption will take much more time apparently to uncover, corruptions that likely permeates the whole project. Birds of feathers tend to flock together. And no one should tell us that these initial suspected persons, now were even just isolated individuals acting on their own without the vast help and knowledge of any others now too. Higher education never insures one’s good moral standings.

MONTREAL – Former executive committee chair Frank Zampino was, for a time, the most powerful man in Montreal, according to the latest witness Rosaire Sauriol at the Charbonneau Commission — Rosaire Sauriol a witness who may have exerted considerable influence of his own at city hall. the inquiry lawyer Denis Gallant suggested that Sauriol was a major player in that system and the true second-in-command to Zampino.

” What is important here is that he testified that same schemes of illegal political financing, collusion, bid rigging, fraud , breach of trust, price fixing, were also going on on Federal level! So this means that probably millions of federal tax dollars were also stolen and that illegal donations were also practiced on federal level at the time!!!! Where is the RCMP? “

The already proven cost ineffective RCMP likely or clearly has also abused often taxpayer’s funds itself so it is, was in no position to investigate others.. these corruptions have been on going the last 50 years with the useless Montreal, Quebec and the RCMP police likely part of the problem.. sleeping with the enemy.

” Turns out that every aspect of Quebec public service is completely corrupt. Unfortunately, it is not just the city of Montreal that needs more investigation, it is:
- the SQ for giving themselves illegal bonuses and shutting down investigations that touch the “gouvernement national”.
- The MUC police force, and their contracts between Yvan Delorme and BCIA
- Union Montreal. It appears that at their fundraisers, they sometimes keep part or all of the money.
- We can look forward to “the corruption float” this Sunday which will be led by Montreal’s new mayor mayor Michael “I swear I am not under investigation” Applebaum.
PS: Merci to the SQ for tipping off the mayor about current UPAQ investigations. Obviously nothing has changed..”

OTTAWA — A new report by a respected international human rights watchdog has accused RCMP officers of abusing aboriginal women and girls in northern British Columbia.

Human rights group says RCMP, native relationship ‘dysfunctional’ -A number of women interviewed by Human Rights Watch researchers alleged that RCMP officers used excessive force in arresting them, mistreated them while they were in custody and, in some cases, physically or sexually assaulted them. Many of the aboriginal women he spoke with did not trust police and felt little confidence that any complaints would be addressed. He said he was surprised to find that the fear of police expressed by some of the women was comparable with what he has seen in post-conflict situations in countries such as Iraq and Libya.

While the average Canadian income has grown by 11 per cent over the past decade, the average police salary has grown by 40 per cent. Policing is doing to municipal budgets what health care is doing to provincial budgets: threatening to consume them.” Both need better cost control management too..

IS THERE REALY ANY DOUBT AS TO HOW BIG LIARS OUR TELECOMMUNICATIONS FIRMS ARE?
add to that the oil companies…
The Competition Bureau is suing Canada’s three biggest wireless carriers and an industry association for allegedly misleading consumers about the cost of premium texting services.
The watchdog accuses Bell (TSX:BCE), Rogers (TSX:RCI.B) and Telus (TSX:T), along with the industry group that represents them, of enabling third parties to sell trivia questions, ringtones and other services without adequately disclosing the cost.
Those can cost up to $10 per transaction and up to $40 for a monthly subscription over and above standard texting plans, the bureau said in a release Friday.
“Our investigation revealed that consumers were under the false impression that certain texts and apps were free,” said bureau commissioner Melanie Aitken.
“Unfortunately, in far too many cases, consumers only became aware of unexpected and unauthorized charges on their mobile phone bills.”

First Check your phone bill: You’re probably being overcharged for data or anything else since customers are still too often ABUSED. Overall, the average overcharge can be at least about 5-7% for most users and in the end it’s typically no fault of yours.
Canada also already has bandwidth caps that are too low, and too expensive. When it comes to taking full advantage of the opportunities the Web opens up, Canadians are are being falsely priced gouged at every turn still by these clearly greedy, immoral Communication firms here.
There are many Canadian ISPs with download caps as low as 15GB for a month, with excess billing charges if you burst through the 15GB limit.
The Netflix stock itself is still smarting 1 year after their severe service price hike. The unexpected twist that Netflix unveiled a year ago had triggered mass customer cancellations and a sell-off in its stock, which had wiped out more than $11 billion US in shareholder wealth. Netflix Inc. has bounced back this year to revive its subscriber growth. But even after a recent rally, its stock remains more than 70 per cent below its peak price of nearly $305 about a year ago, largely because of concerns about what Netflix has been spending to attract and retain subscribers. Many Canadian telecommunications firms have to do the same, pay continually very high amount of advertising to try to make up for the much too many customers they offend and lose

While Canada’s major telecom companies — Rogers (TSX:RCI.B), Bell (TSX:BCE) and Telus (TSX:T) — and consumer advocacy groups all support the idea of national standards that would apply to wireless devices that alone will not deal with the much too many consumer complaints here too. Even Canada’s wireless services needs more serious and valid regulation since they seem to be robbing, price gouging the citizens at every point they can, Canada’s service providers are not competitive enough, and Canadians pay too much compared to telecom users around the worl. Thier broadband caps to a ‘human rights violation’. Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos has blasted Canadian internet service providers (ISPs) for their low caps and excess usage charges . Sarandos minced no words when speaking of Canada’s ISPs, stating: “It’s almost a human rights violation, what they’re charging for internet access in Canada.”and he is right. Canada’s internet access is”third world”, and Netflix business in the country has suffered as a result too. Organizations like OpenMedia have been rightfuly battling for Internet openness and fairness to consumers for years. And, of course, Bell, Telus or Rogers have been named the worst throttler in the world. 10% of Canadians use Netflix But Netflix’s Ted Sarandos thinks that number would be a lot higher if it wasn’t for Canadian ISPs. So could likely many others.
Bell Canada, Bell Aliant and Télébec, dominant phone, pay phone providers throughout Ontario, Atlantic Canada and Quebec, all have applied to double the cost of a pay phone call—from 50 cents to a dollar. The cost of using a prepaid debit card would rise to $2 a call. These prices were even previously doubled five years ago. And where else can uou see such a great rater of price increases, inflation under any exuse now to? And is this still a really big issue.. when you consider that the telecomunications firms are not only known big advertsing liars, making loads of money in the processs but they falsely also tend to use a bait and switch policy.. they tend to advertise great, compartive rates but you likley will find next escalting, greedy, price gouging price increases on their servcies with plenty of extra charges, known reasons why they are also hated so much by so many Canadians .. and explaining still simply why they are also making so much money and have become rich, and all this is never acceptable still. It is all sad when you do consider even that Canada drops entirely out of the top 10 when it comes to cellphones, internet infrastructure. Canadian citizens not only do suffer from relatively slow Internet speeds but they are falsely price gouged for using the services too

The other unacceptable Malaise
Unless we are deliberate ostriches by now we all should know about shit disease.. what happens when people, doctors and nurses do not wash their hands in hospitals.. people die.
http://thenonconformer.wordpress.com/2012/09/01/shit-disease-c-difficile-or-what-ever/
The other unacceptable Malaise is sweeping refuse, shit under the rug.. the civil servant managers serious, personal failure to deal with ther unacceptable, crooked, dishonest, thieving subordinates rather than disposing of them, firing them, putting then into the garbage bins is still needed as some people only learn to do good the hard way, when they feel real negative repercussions. I strongly suggest we get rid of these bad managers, firstly, immediately, all bad cops included..
- Canada Border Services Agency is merely documenting cases of travellers complaints of enduring rude behaviour and lengthy interrogations, as well as one case where someone was falsely identified as a person “with criminal ties but here too real action is needed ASAP too..
- A suspicious number of federal contracts for goods and services appear rigged to favour one bidder, suggests another survey. The report, from the contracting watchdog at Public Works, provides further evidence of problems even with the Harper government’s credibility.. Remember when full accountability was the once promised word for His election?

A U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent charged Purdie with conspiracy to export and distribute controlled substances after tracking Purdie’s repeated trips from Fort Erie into Niagara Falls, N.Y., to pick up packages which, according to U.S. investigators, were sent to a private mail box filled with drugs.
and the list goes on and on..
The Conservative government has quietly given Canada’s national police force and the federal border agency the authority to use and share information that was likely extracted through torture well they should listen also to the citizens complaints.

Liberal MP Jim Karygiannis
Toronto Liberal MP Jim Karygiannis is calling for speed limiters to be fitted to cars in order to prevent them from exceeding 150 km/h, in the wake of a fatal accident on Monday in which a speeding car slammed into a concrete pole, splitting the vehicle in half. He would not be so extreme, hypocritical if he had also demanded that breathalyzers be also installed on all new cars, as the impaired drivers still cause most of the accidents and not the car speeders, and also now if he rightfully demanded that there be no spending of any taxpayers money on any booze entertainment in any of the governments, since we can all readily know the harmful effect of alcohol on society in general as well. He also should demand also that the police in all parts of Canada pursue drunk drivers year around, police included and not just part time, or occasionally.. and he now should deal with the much too many drunk cops, politicians too, civil and public servants that we have employed in Canada now too.
Drug or alcohol impaired vehicular driving by men and women and not the actual driving speed are still the key factor in the majority of the traffic accidents …

THEIR EXCUSE IS THEY DRINK ALCOHOL DUE TO THE JOB PRESSURES.. WELL I DO NOT USE THAT FALSE EXCUSE. WE CAN READILY KNOW THE VICES THAT OFTEN FOLLOW DRINKING ALCOHOL
