"P.S. Its amazing how you Canadians are such experts on American Law." Some nights in Canada, we can recieve your TV transmissions, so I get to catch a few episodes of Law & Order. That's where I learn to speak anglish and know your strange laws.

In the US in 1984 we had one company, closely related to the government, which operated the phones. That's changed, now there is competition, closely related to the government. Our phone rates have quadrupled.

To be fair, the reason local rates were so low is that long distance rates were hideously high and were used to subsidize the local rates.
