Bell Canada to buy Ziply Fiber. (www.oregonlive.com)

Ziply was a dumb pipe with decent rates for symmetrical fiber with moderate usage. No good can come of this for customers, hope Kahn blocks it.

Canadian telecoms are very expensive and there is even less choice than in the US. The fact they're expanding here does not bode well, they would only do it if they thought it a juicy opportunity to increase profits...at your expense of course. Yesterday's elections means the FTC will be reappointed with an anti-ney neutrality, anti-regulation chief.
