An open letter against Usage Based Billing

The CRTC recently passed Usage Based Billing for Canadians. This new regulation will dramatically increase the cost of working online in Canada, and will stifle innovative development here. If this doesn't make you joyface, sign the petition at http://www.stopthemeter.ca, and get in contact with your MP asap.

In Vancouver. Is there a rally here that I'm not aware of? If not, I'd consider organizing one, to keep the pressure on until all is decided.

Have you considered joining the Pirate Party? We are always head hunting, and it would be nice to have female input into the Party.
