 Tokens aren't enough

The problem with Canadian Telecom policy, is that the government is in bed with the incumbents.

Every now and again, we get a small victory and laws are changed to favor competition ever so slightly.

What's needed is an overhaul of policy with infrastructure being separated from TelCo/CableCo, and not allowing ISPs to be content providers.

The difference between governments that are pro-consumer and those that are pro-industry, is that the pro-consumer governments are better able to hide their collusion with industry.

That is partially due to their collusion with the press.

And well we all know how great Stevie is with the press so it's no wonder that the regulatory environment is front and center.

The sad reality of it is, all they would have to give to the Canadian public is 20/20 and a 300GB cap and none of this would even touch the surface ever.

Same with Cellphone, quit double dipping and you would have happy consumers.

I'd still be bitchin' but that's to be expected.
