Examine the state of competition for the access link separately from the application riding on the access.<\/p>\n<p>Our approach did not require a mandated unbundling of voice from the local loop. We suggested that the loop could continue to be regulated as a bottleneck facility. If any applications, including voice, are bundled with the loop, then the CRTC&#8217;s bundling rules would apply. However, if applications are not bundled with the loop, then there is no reason to apply economic regulation to the application, which is fully competitive.<\/p>\n<p>Such an approach allows technical neutrality, while the regulatory analysis is done on the basis of proper decomposition of the component parts. This approach accommodates wireless and wireline in a consistent manner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The consulting firm of Lemay-Yates was commissioned by the 4 biggest cable companies together with Allstream and Primus, to prepare a study of international regulatory regimes treatment of VoIP.
