For the lazy that won't bother :) here's how Google reads it when translated.

I copy pasted the page I ended up being sent to by the OP link.

The Union of consumer demand Bell to refund consumers for Internet service that the company refuses to provide them without slowdowns

Consumer: Are you covered by this action?

See the text of the complaint. (external link - PDF file)

Montreal, May 29, 2008 - The Union of consumers and a consumer of Montreal, Myrna Raphael, asked the Superior Court to authorize a class action against Bell Canada on behalf of all consumers of Quebec subscribers, after October 27, 2007 , One of its Internet access services ADSL.

Bell Canada, which announced in promoting its Internet services, "a constant speed, always quick access, without frustrating delays, even at peak times" has developed its network since last fall, sly, device that deliberately slows, the rush hour, the speed of data transfer subscribers to the Internet.

To inspect users' data and manage Internet traffic, Bell uses a technology, Deep Packet Inspection (DPI), which affects the right to privacy of consumers who use Internet access services.

Myrna Raphael had in 2006 signed a contract for 3 years to take advantage of the high speed provided by Bell Canada. For this consumer like thousands of others, the constant speed access was decisive in his choice. Since Bell systematically apply its calming measures, Ms. Raphael and her husband can no longer in the evening, made on Internet activities for which she had subscribed.

The Consumers' Union asks the Court to declare illegal the practice of slowing the transfer of data and systematically applied unilaterally by Bell Canada to its hundreds of thousands of subscribers and order Bell Canada to repay to these consumers, who Bell n 'Not offer what they pay, 80% of their monthly subscription. The Consumers' Union also asks the court to order Bell to be paid to each member of the group, $ 600.00 in damages for false representations it has made on the constant speed Internet connection that it is committed to provide them to order Bell to cease its violations of the right to privacy of consumers and to order the company to pay $ 1 500.00 damages for the infringement of their right to privacy.

The Union of consumers and Myrna Raphael, the person appointed, are represented by the law firm Unterberg, Labelle, Lebeau.

I hope Bell takes a huge hit because of this and a lot of people get fired.

And unfortunately, like so much else in this thing, people like me who have never been Bell customers get the shaft. How so? If you are being throttled then you have a dispute with your ISP who, in turn, has a dispute with Bell. Go start your own lawsuits or convince Union des consommateurs to start them for you ;)

My ISP until 2008 was Bell Sympatico. My dispute is with Bell (for throttling me until I left for TekSavvy) for breaking the terms of the contract I had with them, among other transgressions.
