多伦多:加拿大电信监管机构周四宣布，将不会大幅降低小公司接入大型竞争对手高速宽带网络所必须支付的费率，结束了多年的法律斗争和增加竞争的努力。
加拿大广播电视台和电信委员会（CRTC)在2016年允许小公司接入网络，他们必须向大公司支付中期费率。
政府研究显示，加拿大是全球互联网和手机账单最高的国家之一，此举旨在增加加拿大的竞争。
2019年，该机构同意降低费率，但由于大公司的法律挑战，此举从未生效。周四的裁决意味着2016年的原始税率仍然有效，只是有一些小的调整。
“由前Telus副总裁运营的CRTC对消费者、独立isp(互联网服务提供商)和竞争竖起了巨大的中指，并给了他们全权委托贝尔TekSavvy Solutions公司副总裁彼得·诺瓦克(Peter Nowak)在推特上说:“美国的罗杰斯(Rogers)等人会尽可能地提高我们的互联网费率，永无止境。”
贝尔(BCE)表示，对CRTC的“积极决定”感到高兴。
记者未能立即联系到Telus和Rogers置评。
联邦创新、科学和经济发展部部长弗朗索瓦-菲利普•香槟(Francois-Philippe Champagne)表示，政府“将审查这一决定及其影响，以确保它们与我们的一致政策优先考虑该行业的负担能力、竞争和创新。”

TORONTO: Canada's telecoms regulator announced Thursday it would not significantly lower the rates that small companies must pay to access the high-speed broadband networks of larger rivals, ending years of legal battles and a bid to increase competition.
The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission<\/a> (CRTC<\/a>) granted smaller companies access to the networks in 2016 with interim rates that they had to pay larger companies.
The setup was intended to increase competition in Canada, which has among the highest internet and cellphone bills in the world, according to government studies.
<\/div><\/div>Canada's telecoms industry is dominated by Telus, Rogers and BCE<\/a>, which have 89.2% of subscribers and 90.7% of revenue, according to government figures.
In 2019, the agency agreed to lower rates but the move never went into effect due to legal challenges from the larger companies. Thursday's ruling means the original 2016 rates remain in effect, with some small adjustments.
\"The CRTC, run by a former Telus VP, just gave a giant middle finger to consumers, indie ISPs (internet service providers) and competition, and gave carte blanche to Bell<\/a>, Rogers et al to raise our internet rates as much as they damn well want, ad infinitum,\" Peter Nowak, a vice president at TekSavvy Solutions Inc, said on Twitter.
Bell, as BCE is known, said it was pleased with the \"positive decision\" from the CRTC.
Telus and Rogers were not immediately available for comment.
Francois-Philippe Champagne, federal minister for innovation, science and economic development, said the government \"will be reviewing the decision and its implications to ensure they align with our policy<\/a> priorities of affordability, competition and innovation in the sector.\"
