We appear to be standing our ground!

Not my preferred choice of source but NatPo has more detail than some of the alternatives I saw. It includes some numbers as well as comments about the difference between Meta's and Google's approaches. Hint: they're not the same, so there's already cracks in the effort to make an example out of Canada.

This is why I voted Liberal last time around -- we've FINALLY arrived.

CRTC has been useless or even worse, actively harmful, for a long time now unfortunately.

Definitely worse than useless. They allowed ROBeLUS to bankrupt and buy all independent ISPs but TekSavvy. The old chair was a Telus guy. The new one seems a lot better suited to do actual regulation. They are welcome to take action on the TekSavvy sale any day now. 🀭
