Now the curious question is why Cellular One's switches would be programmed here. The only switch maker I know in Toronto is Northern Telecom. Or is it perhaps that Cellular One is owned by a Toronto based company ? Cantel (the nation-wide "A" carrier) is into all sorts of other technical ventures. Perhaps they're the culprit. Tony H.
