To all Canadians please visit http://www.neutrality.ca/ and http://www.michaelgeist.ca/ lets get on this early and often to stop'em in their tracks with a uniquely Canadian approach (to paraphrase our PM) we have a chance with our three party system with the Liberals and NDP just chomping at the bit to take down the Conservatives who have fallen in the polls now before the next election, contact your MPs, support people like

Mr. Speaker, once again, the Minister of Industry is siding with telecommunications giants against consumers and is refusing to apply the principle of net neutrality, which guarantees identical upload or download speeds for anonymous blogs and big business websites alike. Real competition for sure.

Can the minister make a commitment, here in this House, not to make any decisions that would favour big businesses at the expense of consumers, thus ensuring that the Internet remains a democratic tool?

Over the next few weeks keep your eye open here in Toronto, there'll be posters on the bus shelters, streetcar stops, in the subway etc showing the true intent of the corps on this issue. People must be made aware, fwd the neutrality link around, talk to people, write your reps in gov....our situation up here on this issue is nowhere near as hopeless as south of the border, if only b/c of the cons weak position and our left leaning oppo parties (Liberals and NDP). DO NOT let laziness and lack of an informed public be the reasons why this one slips through.
