Re: Unneccessary channels
What do you by "strange promises"?    That does not seem transformational and forward looking from a country that saw the birth of Nortel and Blackberry (I understand what happened to them afterwards).   What do you think can change it?  What lessons can be learnt in this regard?

Re: Unneccessary channels
You again peaked my courisoity as I also own a ROKU device.    I just checked the ROKU blog as I keep tabs on on-going evolution of ROKU--and although I did not read it in full, over 100 channels available is pretty decent--if one is able to "stream" over Wifi, what is preventing it from being adopted on a more aggressive basis throughout Canada?

@mpouraryan I would say this days due to the bad economy Canadian Co. trying to play it safe... Nortel and Blackberry is no longer leaders or favorites... hope things will change...

Re: Unneccessary channels
It is true they did not adapt--but they are part of a proud legacy of what can be possible.  NOt to get too political--from my vantage point--with a new PM, things can be transformational as I see, for instance,   As I work away at my startup, you again peaked my interest as I "popped" into the Canadian PM's site and picked this up that is going on right now--interesting happenings about the art of the possible--at the heart of what we deliberate here in TT:

Re: Unneccessary channels
This is not different that what goes on the United States as underscored with the debate, for instance, on Net Neutrality and Cable Set Tops--but the march of progress can't be stopped.  I trust you agree with this.

I hope you underscore how hope and faith would be maintained on a constant and consistent basis--having faith and looking forward is at the heart of transformation--and many of what we are witness to today.
