SaveOurNet Principles

The SaveOurNet.ca coalition believes

1. The CRTC should STOP Bell, Rogers and other Internet Service Providers from interfering with private Internet communications and content (Throttling Traffic)

2. We need to protect innovation, competition, free speech, and Canadian culture, by protecting the principle of Net Neutrality and the Internet's level playing field.

3. Canadian government officials should develop and enforce Net Neutrality rules that ensure Canadian Internet users have open access to applications and content of their choice.

4. We need increased broadband access, competition, transparency and choice for all Canadians.

In additional to the above principles, the SaveOurNet.ca coalition calls on the CRTC to carry out net neutrality public hearings in cities across the country, so as to afford as many people as possible the opportunity to participate. Based on the growing importance of digital media to Canadian culture, the economy and the everyday lives of people across Canada; accessible public hearings are necessary to ensure the future of our communication system is decided democratically.
