The regulations policy document are not the regulations per se, but rather a clear indication of planned regulations under the guise of a policy document. The document contains several key sections:

Shock... Is it really that shocking? I don't know. I feel like I would have been significantly more shocked if the Gov came out and did public consultations. I don't think they're much interested in what the public has to say about these laws. Symptoms of a majority Conservative Government. |

Baby Bells I wonder if people are still going to be running to Teksavvy after learning they support this. Suckers. |
|
seriously? Where else is there to "run to" exactly? Is there a single ISP left that's interested in their user's privacy? Of all the ISP's out there, I would have thought Teksavvy was... I for one will be writing them about this. |

Privacy is awesome Privacy is awesome. Because... Privacy means you can be yourself. You can express ideas without fear of being discriminated against or unjustly punished. It's your life without pausing to think who's watching: party hard, open up to a friend, organize a revolution, hang out with whoever you want--privacy keeps you safe. It's a core principle in any free society. from the campaign against CISPA: http://www.privacyisawesome.com/ |

... In defense of the independent ISPs, they would probably want to know what regulations would be forced on them and so it would only be wise to be part of these discussions. They should have made know publicly that they were doing so rather than just looking like all the others. I suppose there may have been a NDA involved ... perhaps like the one Towes got his babysitter to sign? ;D |

privater Oh no! So the government can know my subscriber info! And hear me talk on the phone? Oh NO! Um... okay. |

Invasion of privacy Harper absolutely hates the internet. He hates his dastardly deeds getting out to the public. Opposition party's have complained about Harper sneaky meetings, behind closed doors. This has nothing to do with pedophilia nor pornography. This is all about Harper's non-transparent government. He does not people to be able to, inform each other and expose the governments, dirty tactics/dirty politics. There were police caught watching porn, on the computers at work. I doubt those sites have been taken down by them. |

Proper and Improper It's good when government consults with industry. Government don't know what being a kind of company is like. It's bad when government secretly provides (under NDAs) specifics of a new law, including cash for following and enforcing it (!) on uncompensated customers, and then forcefully tries to enact it by calling the opposition pedophiles. We still don't know what went on in the meetings, but it clearly appears like corruption -- patronage I believe. Shaw gambled well here, and I support their strategy. |

.. @No Surprise Where else is there to go besides I'm not surprised they are for this bill but they definitely are still better then Rogers in price and monthly bandwidth so I can download as much illegal shit I want! YA you heard me CONS and MPAA/RIAA and those wannabe Canadian MPAA/RIAA so shuv it! |

... Makes you wonder how much secret crap went into C11, seeing how they're set to pass it in record time even though the opposition and public are against it. What are you hiding, Harper.... |

... The ISP's are biting the hands that feed them. It's going to create a backlash, from not only the likely passing of Bill C-11, but this news coming out of them supporting Bill C-30. I survived without the internet, before its inception. And with restricted freedoms and having my privacy disappear online, if either one or both C-11 or C-30 pass, internet better be dirt cheap. I'll pay no more than just over $25 CDN to surf news and sports sites. Even accepting to be charged twenty-five bucks for just that a month, would probably still be generous on my part. |

... The point, if you listen to Shawn Buckley, and other Canadian constitutional lawyers is, that if you want to preserve civil rights,the Bill of Rights and the Charter of rights protections, society cannot agree to give government a toolkit of vast new powers, while doing away with the protections a warrant provides. Otherwise the only think standing between you, the taser, and the jailhouse is somo police, or customs officer watered down idea of discretion, which as we have witnessed at G-20, and the Montreal riots, the Dizanski tasering (remember him) and the Calgary airport is outrite dangerous. |
We want to enhance competition and investment in this country, and this is why we adopted this policy back in 2008 for the AWS spectrum. Let me say that the price went down by an average of 11% since then, and we will continue this way with the 700 megahertz spectrum. We launched consultation with the industry to make sure that we enhance competition and provide better choice and better rates for our consumers.
