The peak period is what should be driving this whole debate. You only have problems when your capacity is full. It doesn't matter who is causing it, it just has to be managed. The CRTC said, in the traffic management decision, first, we want carriers to build their networks up; second, we want them to use economic measures; and third, we want them to throttle, if they have to.
I don't see any evidence of their doing the first, mostly because the companies refused to provide these figures for competitive reasons, as the excuse. But Canadians don't know how much they're investing in the networks.
Second, if they're going to use economic measures, it would be much more sensible to use ones where you push people off peak time all equally, as with electricity, to off-peak. That may not be very palatable to the average consumer, but it's much more fair.
