Cablevision’s TPIA rates approved by the CRTC
GATINEAU – A year ago today, Quebecor Media’s Videotron demanded third party internet access to Bell’s networks in the region of Abitibi, in Québec, which operates under the brand Cablevision du Nord. After a couple of rounds of regulatory back-and-forth CRTC ordered Bell to give access to Videotron and file tariffs.
Yesterday, the CRTC gave final approval to Cablevision du Nord’s tariffs for its 50 Mbps and 125 Mbps, over Videotron’s objection.
“The Commission approves on an interim basis the basic monthly usage charges and the monthly capacity charges per 100 Mbps tabled by Câblevision. A final determination will follow the conclusion of the various proceedings related to Telecom Order 2019-288, which relate to the final rates for aggregated wholesale high-speed access services,” the CRTC Order reads.
A Videotron spokesperson indicated to Cartt.ca in an email they will have details to share with the people in the region about their arrival, soon.
