| double dip is right! Teksavvy pays for their speed/bandwidth/gige's, and now bell gets to charge them (and us) for how much its used!
This is akin to having a wind generator for your home and then hydro one gets permission from a regulator to put a meter on it and bill you for your power usage.
Or having well water and having the county meter it and bill you for it (our county tried to pass that one). Tells us allot about how corrupt our regulators here are. Its not about the people its about the corporations and the mighty buck...... aft |

1 edit | Depending on how the water table in your area works this sometimes can make sense. If you have a access to the same water table that feeds a city's reservoir then in a drought situation you're on the same water grid even if you aren't getting the benefits of water treatment. It's one of the reasons that almost no deeds being sold now contain water or mineral rights. |

Your deed doesn't allow you to collect water from nature. The monopoly govt also says you have to subscribe to the power grid, city water and sewer and gas, or your property will be condemned and loose its certificate of occupancy. |
