Yeah the CRTC doesn't endorse throttling but it's OK for Bell to continue doing it. Hypocrites!!!!
No, go back and read. In this case Bell wasn't anti-competitive. But there is a larger issue at hand, so the CRTC will engage their process.

Sometimes people just can't read.
Yeah, and apparently those people are on the CRTC. Bell wasn't anti competitive? It even says in their last annual report that a) they need to upgrade the net, b) that's expensive, c) they might not be able to recoup the cost by raising prices, d) the alternative is to throttle, e) if they throttle, they'll lose customers...and finally f) competitors that aren't throttled will gain customers.

So, 2 weeks after that report, they throttle everyone.

What is that if not anti-competitive? We want to start offering an inferior product, and if we do, everyone will leave, so lets make certain no one else can offer better...

umm, what if some bot nets did a ddos to bell video store just enough to throttle the service down to about 30k? i dont think thats illegal you're not preventing or disrupting their service.
You're just managing their service because its causing congestion on the internet.
