Well how about that, the internet was used to stop a bill metering internet.
Canadians were quick to respond, well actually it took more than a month, but over a quarter of a million people signed a petition against the proposed metering of internet bandwidth. The Conservative government sees this as an opportunity to get some brownie points with potential voters; they've intervened and asked the CRTC for a reason why they made the ruling to permit the oligopolies to charge what is essentially free bandwidth to consumers.
Looks like, for now, we're safe from being charged exorbitant fees like we have on our cell phones (from the very same companies I might add).
Great to see Canadians slowly losing their rediculous apathy too.
