CRTC Moving To Lower Cable Costs For Canadians

As part of its revamping of Canadian telecommunications and broadcasting, the CRTC will tell the country’s cable industry that it must offer subscribers a $25 monthly option that would include local channels as well as some channels such as the Weather Network, some educational channels, and some news channels that broadcast in both French and English.  Currently, Canadian cable subscribers have options that start at about $40 for about 190 channels.
