    Good news :)

    Its nice to see them think about Quebec people too ;)

    I live in Quebec and i speak french but I only listen movies in French when its a complicated story and that i don't want to miss a word. Otherwise i watch movies in English to practice but more importantly because there's nothing better than the original sound track of a movie :P

    Thankx for sharing this news !

    And toques. Can't do anything in Canada if you're not wearing a toque, eh?

    Not a stereotype but I just felt like saying it. It's the junior high kid in me but it's somewhat relevant...kind...

    No, I think that's only a problem if it's the other way around.
    Yes, I'm already aware I'm a horrible person, but thanks for noticing

    And I see that one of Canada's largest ISP's, Rogers, which I unfortunately use, has changed their broadband plans in preparation of jamming it's customers.

    Rogers has always openly throttled there customers for years. If you yell enough at there customer service reps they'll give you the number for the "Office Of The President" aka the man in charge. They'll tell you flat out if you don't want to be throttled, switch to a different ISP....

    I went with Teksavvy and even though Bell throttles them since they're whole sale customers there's a way around Bell's throttle. It's called MLPPP using a program called Tomato...

    Check them out. They're USUALLY pretty decent....even give you step by step customer support for beating Bell's throttle :thumbup


    Check out my ISP blog for more details...
