WE. JUST. WON. The CRTC just denied Bell’s dangerous application to censor the internet and force the end of net neutrality in Canada. And it wouldn’t have been possible without you.
The dangerous proposal would have allowed a few unaccountable corporations, like Bell, to blacklist sites. It would have put unprecedented control over what we view on the net in the hands of a handful of unaccountable, profit-driven corporations.
But the fight’s not over yet. Bell and its cronies are deciding whether or not to appeal this landmark decision, and it gets worse: just days ago, the new free trade agreement, NAFTA 2.0, was signed -- with massive and troubling attacks on our digital rights. New copyright agreements could empower Bell and other major telecommunications companies to attack net neutrality again. That’s why we need you help now -- to campaign against Bell’s appeal, and NAFTA 2.0’s dangerous copyright proposals and ensure a safe and open internet in Canada.
Can you chip in to protect net neutrality in Canada?
