Whether or not you agree with the positions set forth, you might learn something about how to prepare for a regulatory proceeding.<\/p>\n<p>Be sure to tune in especially at the 1:52:07 mark, where the question by Commissioner Chris MacDonald is greeted with reserved laughter. He asked TELUS if it is &#8220;part of ISED&#8217;s Connected [sic] Families initiative&#8221;. It speaks volumes about failures in CRTC market awareness that the Commission didn&#8217;t know the history of the program, the leadership of TELUS and Rogers in launching the service and the companies freely sharing their early experience to help take the program nationwide. <\/p>\n<p>If you are a regular reader of this blog, you know where <a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2BFSpAH\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Connecting Families<\/a> came from. <\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t just the history of Connecting Families that was troubling. The CRTC seemed completely unaware of the extremely wide range of products and service plans that are available.
