A Toronto Star column expresses outrage over the wireless industry’s go-slow policy on implementing number portability. The column quotes a telecom consultancy: “Canada was supposed to be a world leader in communications — yet we can’t manage to let a customer keep her telephone number as she changes providers? We are already competing for last place in the industrialized world. Last place in wireless penetration, last place in number portability — is that how we want to be known?”
Virgin Mobile placed full-page ads in major newspapers and asked Canadians to send email expressing their views on the subject.
The column also notes that the CRTC is accepting comments and complaints (online or via email) about the industry’s plan for number portability.
