I was not surprised by the ruling in the least because to my mind CAIP asked the wrong question.
IOW instead of asking that Bell no longer be allowed to throttle resellers DSL products to match their own throttled offerings. Which the CRTC said Bell could do, since everyone is being affected equally and there was no "preferrential treatment" granted anyone (every DSL provider gets whacked the same way)
What should have been asked is that Bell had in fact violated their signed agreements with the resellers like Teksavvy etc., though I'll bet my paralegal license that the contract that Bell has signed with the resellers allows them to "manage their network"
