Not surprised by this ruling, disappointed yes, but not surprised...
If CAIP's question to the CRTC was whether the throttling was discriminatory if applied to them equally as Bell Canada applied it to its own customers, then I can't see how the CRTC could have ruled any other way.
But if CAIP's question to the CRTC was whether Bell can breach the contract that was signed between Bell and the independent DSL ISP then this ruling would make no sense at all unless Bell had the foresight to insert language in the contract that said Bell had the right to "manage" their part of the network any way they saw fit.
My response to the CRTC's ruling? Calling one of Bell's competitors for *both* my ISP and phone service and switching them
