You have the sympathies of your brothers and sisters to the south. I was really rooting for the CAIP and especially TekSavvy.
Hopefully the separate proceeding to consider wholesale and retail issues will be fruitful. Don't give up the fight guys, you have a lot of people cheering you on. |

Perhaps our brothers and sisters South of the border can e-mail a few copies of the FCC's decision against Comcast to the CRTC! |

What's the next step? Anyone know how to file a class action lawsuit? I sure am not willing to give up. This is total BS |

Re: CRTC ruling coming Thursday Nov 20
The growing popularity of certain Internet applications, such as online video, can lead to network congestion. To deal with this congestion, some Internet service providers (ISPs) are managing the flow of traffic on their networks or adopting new business models.
WOW.
so let me get this straight... CRTC says Online Video content leads to network congestion, which allows Bell to throttle P2P. Then Bell opens an UNTHROTTLED online video store. COME ON.
Keep diggin' CRTC, keep diggin' |

said by Calisto :Perhaps our brothers and sisters South of the border can e-mail a few copies of the FCC's decision against Comcast to the CRTC! I am hopeful that the incoming Obama Administration will radically change the telecommunications landscape ... similar to what the US Telecommunications Act of 1996 should have done before the dot com bust and the current Administration's anti-consumer policies knocked us back 20 years.
If the landscape changes radically down here (and for the better), one would hope it would influence your government as well. Sort of a let them take all the risk, then a "See, it worked for the Americans, it can work for us too." |

said by alphaz18 :the next step is to boycott anything bell. i dont see any other alternative. because anything owned by big companies is almost ALWAYS bad for consumers. Absolutely, I have already taken a personal fight to boycott anything "Bell", as I was expecting this decision from the CRTC:
1) I have ported my cell phone number away from Bell Mobility
2) I have closed my Bell TV account and moved to cable
3) I have ported my home phone number to cable (not to Teksavvy, as my understand is that Bell is still getting a fairly good portion of the reselling through Teksavvy).
Unfortunately, Bell will still get a little bit of money through my DSL connection with Teksavvy, but at least Teksavvy gets a little as well.
I encourage everyone to do the same. |

Why don't we all just take a couple minutes and breath here. I am sure that Rocky, Paul, Tom, and anyone else related to CAIP are already on the phone with the lawyers figuring out what to do next.
Lets wait for them to come back to us here and tell us what the next step is and then we can all focus our anger to helping that cause. |

Did we really expect anything less of our great Canadian CRTC ? There is no reason why they had to drag this out the way they did, when it's obvious they had made their decision some time ago. Same shit, different day. |
