Re: Quebeckers hit Bell Canada with class action

So what. We could still sue a company and request for class action. If enough people had issues that could be presented.

I will apply since I am with H3ll.

When signing up, do I use the name on the contract or my own, or both?

"Avez-vous constaté depuis octobre 2007 des ralentissements à votre vitesse d'accès Internet? Oui.
Si oui, veuillez indiquer les applications sur lesquelles vous avez constaté des ralentissements:"
[Did you see any internet slowdowns since October '07?
If so on which applications?]

Which other applications besides torrents are irrefutably throttled?
If anyone tested this yet, are other application throttled as well when you use them in parallel with torrents?

Quebec has different civil law than Ontario or any other province. At least it did when I lived there many years ago.
Yup, Canadian provinces uses the common law (British) while Québec has the Civil code.

well if bell thinks it has the right as the CRTC says it has for the moment to do this, hten NOT only would a class action by bell customers be possible but any third party customer that is affected and it is as i said that we would wait until the caip issue had a decision and as the CRTC thinks its ok to let us hang for ever, then perhaps it is time for an ontario suit.

If Mr Geist would step up and get someone a contact lawyer and perhaps some donations for the cost could be had then you might see a class action.

As i said the issues i have had are not isolated.

I'm from Quebec and legally speaking a lot of things are unique to Quebec. No idea if that is relevant here (not a lawyer).

But for once I guess we are getting mileage out of the innate classic French disagreeable nature

If Bell is forced to turn off DPI for their own customers, then they have better turn it off for other ISPs that use
their infrastructure.

Personally I think a precedent to the class action would be more powerful than a CRTC ruling.

Unless you are a Sympatico customer, I don't think it would make a diff anyways. Correct me if I'm wrong.

We need a PLO party for us Ontarian... Not to be confused with that other organization. Hopefully, also not outsourced to there either.

I have the impression that the Quebec court is more consumer friendly too. Wish the same for our courts here.

Indeed.
My only question is why wouldn't most of that bill be in canadian law.

If I heard about some old mushlim guy cutting the clittorise off his daughter up here in canada. I'd be pissed.

and if it was like school, distractions are not allowed, those veils on the ladies always distract me, I'd prefer if they didn't follow such extreme religions still once in canada, but they can atleast put laws in place preventing the burtal parts of these religions.

That's a good idea, actually.

Any lawyers want to take this up? I know oodles of people on Bell Canada who'd sign...

Extend it to wholesalers, and you get even more.

Someone in Ontario needs to file a similar class action suit against Bell so the rest of us can join.

If this keeps up, Bell's legal fees are easily going to top whatever profit they thought could be made from these shenanigans. And most companies die not with a whimper, nor with a bang - but in a flurry of lawsuits.
