Though would it be that hard for one of the US carriers to just extend their network northward? Or is that illegal?
This is one area where government intervention might eventually be required.

There's some sort of canadian content law that prevents this somewhere, I'm sure of it. I discussed this with a friend of mine. Basicly, american companies can't come in and provide us with a network because that would violate the idea that we have to have our own companies provide us with service... seems ass backwards to me.
It's the same reason we can't get Cartoon network in Canada, Canadian content protection restricts it.
