Abstract
In response to government deregulation, Call-Net Enterprises entered Canada''s long-distance market as a reseller of existing telephone infrastructure built by the Stentor group. Call-Net is about to enter Canada''s local market as well. Meanwhile, many new competitors are introducing new technologies other than the traditional copper wire or optic fibre, and low-earth-orbiting satellites promise a new alternative supplier technology. In this context, Call-Net must decide whether to remain a reseller; if not, then it must decide what local loop infrastructure to build, whether to rely solely upon the Sprint brand, and whether to extend its activities into other countries. Meanwhile, future changes in government policies around the world will continue to impact Call-Net''s strategy.
