So TSN on its own might be $10 and another $5 for TSN2. but then the crap channels like Dejaview will be $1. Also if everyone only watches one channel in a bundle then each channel in that bundle will on its own cost the $10 because the total revenue before and after unbundling needs to remain the same. The only people who will save money are those who watch the unpopular channels as their value will drop off a lot.3
When the CRTC makes changes these companies only use it as an excuse to raise prices.

I think it is time for full on price regulation in the entire telco industry.
These guys put the absolute minimum in for infrastructure upgrades because the "competition" does the same thing.
