The Coalition of Internet Service Providers has filed a substantial =20
contribution at the CRTC stating:
1) The CRTC should forbid DPI, as it cannot be proven to be 98.5% =20
effective at trapping P2P, such as to guarantee congestion relief
2) The CRTC should allow for other forms of traffic management by =20
ISPs, such as Flow Management

The world will see Canada taking head-on the issue of addressing the =20
legitimacy of DEEP PACKET INSPECTION as a mean of properly managing an =20=
incumbent's network behind the unbundling/peering interface.
NANOG cannot pretend that this debate does not take place and remain =20
silent on this.
Best regards,
