Abstract
  • This report examines the state of competition in the mobile wireless market, internet

    access, broadcast, pay and streaming TV services, internet advertising, advertising

    across all media, newspapers, browsers, online news sources, search, social media,

    operating systems, etc. in Canada over the period from 1984 until 2017. We call the

    sum-total of these media “the network media economy”. We then use two common

    metrics—Concentration Ratios and the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI)—to determine

    whether these markets—individually and collectively—are competitive or concentrated.
