Hi Jean, What is the status of net neutrality in Canada? Regards, Roderick. ________________________________ From: NANOG <nanog-bounces () nanog org> on behalf of Jean-Francois Mezei <jfmezei_nanog () vaxination ca> Sent: Sunday, October 30, 2016 6:52 PM To: Nanog () nanog org Subject: FYI: Net Neutrality in Canada This is a heads up, the CRTC (Canada's FCC) is holding a week long hearing on net neutrality in Canada ("differential pricing" is the used). Canada has had its "ITMP" (Internet Traffic Management Practices) policy since 2009 which deals with unfair throttling, and now, we are arguing on zero rating and sponsored content stuff). It will be broadcasted at http://www.cpac.ca (at bottom of home page [http://www.cpac.ca/wp-content/uploads/default_2016_social_seo_logo_500x230.jpg]<http://www.cpac.ca/> CPAC - Cable Public Affairs Channel<http://www.cpac.ca/> www.cpac.ca CPAC, the Cable Public Affairs Channel, is Canada's only privately-owned, commercial free, not for profit, bilingual television service. there should be a selection for the CRTC hearing). Note: you can choose between english, french of floor (untranslated). Days generally start at 09:00. Can end at any time. Either @CRTCeng or @CRTChearings will be tweeting links to presentations as each presentation begins. hashtag: #CRTC #Diffpricing Facebook did not wish to appear but was "invited". Last time the CRTC did that, it was with Netflix and Google and sparks flew ("you don't regulate us, we don't have to answer"). (It appears on Tuesday right after me, so they should be roughly ~ 10:30 or 11:00.) The agenda: http://www.crtc.gc.ca/Telecom/eng/HEARINGS/2016/ag31_10.htm The original Notice of Consultation:
http://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2016/2016-192.htm?_ga=1.136052530.24154879.1433393531

Note: this started with a different proceeding in September 2015 2 parts 1 filings against Vidéotron who started zero rated music on its wireless service for music services that Vidéotron approved/selected.
