How many people still have FREE local calls, with no limits whatsoever?
Here in Toronto, Bell Canada charges about $15 for local service, with
free, unlimited calls to about 3 million people (~20 miles in every direction
from the centre of the city [except south, which is into the lake]).
From what I understand, most or all U.S. local phone companies have
changed to billing for local calls, at least by call if not by time.

P.S. We've had our own problems with Bell Canada reorganizing
to escape the regulators in part, and our rates may be headed up.
