We pay Nav Canada directly. Don't forget, though, that any privatized

It won't be able just to raise fees whenever it feels like it.

Like the phone companies...the Postal (dis)service...

Exactly. People may whine about the pennies, but we're not exactly
paying $5/letter,

(So $4.00 a letter is okay?)

And the postal service is losing it's shirt now that it has to compete with
e-mail, FAX...

and phone service has become cheaper over the past
few years.

Since they brought in competition.
