A site at competitivebroadband.com has opened today to spread the word about the current net neutrality crisis in Canada.
This crisis has started because of moves by Bell and Telus to throttle bandwidth and introduce usage-based billing. These incumbent telcos, long subsidized by Canadian tax payers, are attempting to reduce competition and increase prices for everyone, including customers of alternative Internet providers.
Please have a look at the site, read the background material, and send in your letter to your politicians asking for a review of the recent CRTC decisions.
Warning – Keep Broadband Competitive in Canada
Unless you make your voice heard, a CRTC decision sets the stage for rapid increases in prices for your telecommunications and broadband services. You can reverse this decision, and making your voice heard takes only 30 seconds.
