Net Neutrality comments
p2pnet news view Freedom | P2P:- As Michael Geist points out, there are only three days left before public comments close on the CRTC’s net neutrality hearing.
“How we choose to manage internet traffic will have a huge impact on the ability of the net to fulfil it promise to Canadians,” said CIPPIC (Canadian Internet Policy and Public Interest Clinic) counsel David Fewer recently.
Because unless Canadians make their feelings known, the ‘we’ could become ‘they,’ the all-powerful (they think) telcos such as Bell Canada, Rogers and Telus.
Find out how you can comment here, and below is a SaveOurNet.ca video on why net neutrality is such an important issue.

I am amazed at how the people I mention this to via links don’t read it and get it. I have to rant about it to get them to realize what it means.
CRTC does not often ask for our opinion, here’s your chance and don’t blow!
I don’t know what more I can do.

Although i’m just a southern neighbor, I couldn’t agree more with the whole issue stated in this article. Its time that, not just our Canadian friends, but everyone out there, realize that without neutrality THERE ISNT ANY WEB
It’s time to wake up and take a stand, personally, I don’t want to go BACK TO THE STONE AGE of technology!!
Guess the real QUESTION IS, DO YOU???

ive done my best spread this via forums, email, IM, many people really dont get how serious net neutrality is. This is not something to be taken lightly by any internet user.
btw a good idea would be to test your connection with the glasnost throttling test at measurementlab.net take a date/time stamped screenshot or save the page and include it in your submission with a speedtest.net test you may also wish to include this image: http://bayimg.com/image/nanghaabk.jpg if you are a rogers customer.
Does anybody know of a more thorough connection analysis breakdown for free online?
