It's not like the CRTC is just going to welcome some Egyptian businessman to try and take over the market, of course he is going to face problems.

Don't really understand his bitching. I understand why Canadians would bitch, because like mentioned he are gauged for inferior products/grid and have very little choice of carriers.
I think he saw the obvious price gouging of the consumer and thought he could change the market by offering better plans & no term contracts. However the Big 3 really ramped up getting us all hooked onto 3 year contracts, so that by the time the new competitors were up and running many of us were stuck in contracts for a few years. Which is pretty much how it played out.
