Appearing in Glen Kauth's
Law
Times article “Wireless Phone Companies Must
Upgrade 911 Services,” Duncan Card comments on the
CRTC's decision to have wireless phone service providers
supply upgraded 911 emergency services by February 2010. Citing
potential problems in adding to existing telecom grids, Duncan
points out the inherent risk of incompatibility when adding new
technology to existing systems. He further comments on the
source of the regulation, pointing out that the group who created
the legislation wasn't necessarily the body that should have
created it.
