Abstract :
Since the publication of the book ``The Year 2000´´ by Kahn and Wiener, it has become popular for prophets to make predictions about what is going to happen in the next 30 years. This article discusses some possibilities and limitations, as they apply to the Canadian telecommunication industry. No attempt is made to forecast accurately future developments in detail.
