2011 Federal Election Issues - Internet Usage Based Billing

In an earlier post "2011 Federal Election Issues - This Needs To Be An Issue - Internet Usage Based Billing" Brian Madigan asked about cost estimates - (how much more can we expect to pay)

 

Would a 1785+ % increase in your costs
or
your consumers costs
affect your online marketing campaign?

 

1785+ % Monthly Increase Under Internet Usage Based Billing

While I am unable to give an estimate here is one business owner who knows because his ISP provider called him to let him know what his increase would be. Unless your business take a hit like this now is the time to let all parties know this is not acceptable

 

$56 Jumps to $600 Monthly Under Internet Usage Based Billing.

From the Small Business article  "Usage Based Billing Debate: Bandwidth Hogs or Business Bulls" by Dianne Buckner CBC News

Hart was paying $56 a month for internet, then his provider called to say that with the new system he'll be paying $600. "That's what the same as my mortgage!" says Hart. read more

Barrie...OK, now I am concerned  [as a bill has been proposed to be presented or to present ] as to NET situations, basically giving our presidents the power to shut-down in times of national security; there has been talk about charges for some usage.  Please tell me that you are speaking only to a National as in Canada issue.
It is really wrong whichever country. Keep us in the loop regardless of the Country of concern.  Have a great week.

Barrie...OK, but those exclamation points that follow your answer are very disturbing.  Maybe Pres. Obama will spend the next weeks touting how he & his decisions have 'saved Lybia' and he will mot push for Internet items.
Say Hi to your partner.  Did just answer her comment,  Have a great rest of the week.

Barb - our countries do tend to mimic each other in a lot of things hence the "!!!!" I am not sure how your Internet usage is regulated or if you already have something in place like this
