It gotta do with the pseudo-monopoly that Rogers, Telus and Bell Canada have over the nation. I means, yeah, we have numerous carriers like Fido and Koodoo, but all of them so far are owned by one of those three telecommunications companies. It doesn't help that CRTC board members are composed of former higher-ups and CEOs of those telecommunications companies as well. So it's not hard for those three companies to manipulate the government to fulfill their own agendas; if they don't want to provide certain services, they can just manipulate the government into backing their decisions. Money talks. If it doesn't... we would have data-only plans by now, which a lot of hearing people wants and are demanding with no avail.
Problem is that we only got 30 million people residing in the world's biggest (or second biggest) country, so it's hard for a competitive market to emerge since we don't have the population to support more than a handful of companies to service the entire nation.
