The Canadian Radio-television Telecommunications Commission issued an order yesterday to Rogers Communications giving the internet provider until September 27 to formulate a plan to cease throttling online games such as
World of Warcraft, reports
the Calgary Herald. Noting that Rogers own traffic management policy states that "online games, such as World of Warcraft, should not be throttled or slowed down, and would only be affected if Rogers misclassifies the games and other peer-to-peer applications were running at the same time." For its part, Rogers states it has corrected the issue with World of Warcraft and is "not aware of any problems with any other online games." Thanks

What? Trudeau didn't support free trade. Not in the least. He supported fair trade. And it was chretien that signed it into law in '94. Something you seem to have missed you know.
Chretien signed NAFTA, yes, but Mulroney signed the FTA, which was the originator of NAFTA. All NAFTA did was expand the number of countries in the FTA by one.
And the FTA was recommended by the commission that was appointed by Trudeau, so while he may not have supported it directly, the commission he created did.
And even if you'd like to blame the conservatives for the GST, you know that earth shattering "evil" 7% or even 8%, it removed the 13% hidden manufacturing tax. And in essence lowered taxes by 5%, or should have.
Much like the HST did in Ontario, the GST, while a lower overall tax, applied to a great many things that the manufacturing tax did not. For the "average" Canadian, it increased the amount of taxes that you were paying on the majority of items you bought. So no, it did not "lower" taxes by 5%.
So, yeah, about the "reality" you think you are talking about... |
