Default Traffic throttling by Canadian ISPs not required, experts tell CRTC

Quote:
Canada's Internet service providers (ISPs) have no reason to throttle peer-to-peer (p2p) traffic and can use other network management techniques that have minimal end-user repercussions instead, according to top Internet experts.


Net neutrality advocates in Canada have sought out the testimony of experts involved in inventing the Internet and managing Canada's major backbone connection.

Interesting article. There are also a couple paragraphs about Telus, and the fact that they supposedly don't traffic shape or limit p2p connections.

Also mentions Telus wanted to introduce fiber to the curb-side cable boxes in order to increase bandwidth.
