Hi everyone,
This auction is extremely important. The Canadian Government is selling this block of wireless airspace to Telecom starting tomorrow for billions of dollars. Unfortunately this lower frequency penetrates through much more and is absorbed by people even more too. They are using it because it goes farther; goes through brick, concrete, metal; and will penetrate into basements, underground garages and elevators.
It will be used on towers in the country and lamp-posts in the city. Yes, they are installing cell antennas on lamp-posts now in Toronto, right in front of your house.
Please take the time to fill out this letter and send to our Industry Minister and your own MP/MPP as well.
The government just announced this week as well that they are going to be selling the 2500 MHz spectrum next year. They won't stop and it will never be enough.
Thanks,
Hi
The Federal Government will be auctioning off the 700MHz and the 24-2500 MHz ranges. These are frequencies are ones that are very harmful and we must make efforts to stop this. Please write to Industry Canada before Tuesday, January 14th.
Sorry for the short notice but I have included a formatted letter that can be filled in and sent.
