Écrivez à vos candidats locaux : Engagez-vous MAINTENANT à remettre l’Internet canadien sur la bonne voie!
Notre Internet est pris au piège dans des eaux dangereusement infestées de lobbyistes. La plateforme électorale 2021 d’OpenMedia dresse un plan afin de revenir sur la bonne voie. Au travail!
Email your local MP candidates NOW: Put Canada’s Internet back on course!
Canada is entering the 2021 election with our Internet policy dangerously adrift. Tell your local MP candidates NOW how to put things back on course!
Tell the White House: Enshrine our Right to Repair in federal law!
Manufacturers are stopping us from fixing the devices we own. Sign the petition: Enshrine our Right to Repair in federal law NOW!
Send Ian Scott an invite for patio beers to talk Internet regulation — just like he did with Bell!
At an Ottawa pub in broad daylight, the CRTC chair sat down for beers with Bell’s CEO — an official, registered lobbying meeting — just weeks after Bell filed its appeal of the CRTC’s 2019 wholesale rates. Let’s invite Ian Scott for a beer too, as this seems to be how we'd get our voices heard.
The CRTC just screwed Canadians, and only the government can fix it.
In a shameless policy reversal, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) just scrapped its own lower Internet wholesale rates from 2019 and reverted to the oppressively high 2016 rates — despite us already paying some of the highest prices in the world!
Stop Rogers from buying out Shaw!
If we don’t stop this disaster of a sale, fewer providers in the market will lead to these services getting even MORE expensive!
Call your MP and demand affordable Internet for all
We’re making sure our representatives know we’re done waiting for cheaper Internet! If enough of us flood their phone lines and voicemail, MPs will be forced to make this issue a priority
BRING BACK NET NEUTRALITY!
Two FCC commissioners are against Net Neutrality, and two are for it. With one empty seat on the FCC, President Biden must urgently appoint a pro-consumer, pro-Net Neutrality commissioner.
Done Waiting
As a voter in their riding, your MP knows you’re watching their actions and will be deciding whether to vote for them in the next Federal election. Email them now and demand to know what real action they’re taking for Internet affordability!
Get Canada Connected
As schools, workplaces, stores, government services and community events move online, a whopping 59% of rural households across Canada still don’t have access to reliable high-speed Internet. Let’s change that!
OpenMedia works to keep the Internet open, affordable, and surveillance-free. We create community-driven campaigns to engage, educate, and empower people to safeguard the Internet.
