The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) is a federal regulator responsible for overseeing broadcasting and telecommunications in Canada. It is based in Gatineau, Quebec, and has a workforce described as several hundred employees. Its mandate is to ensure Canadians have access to a high-quality communication system that fosters innovation and enriches daily life. Its stakeholders include Canadian consumers, broadcasters, and telecom providers who rely on regulatory decisions to address competition, affordability, and consumer rights. In February 2023, Canadian Industry Minister Champagne indicated the regulator would pursue a new policy direction focusing on competition, affordability, and consumer rights as the Rogers-Shaw deal moved toward approval.
