Following close on the heels of the billions in new carbon taxes, we now have the unaccountable and never-elected CRTC commissioners deciding to raise hidden taxes on telecom services in urban areas, including on poor families, and using the extra money raised to subsidize Internet subscribers in rural and remote areas.  One of the results will be that poor urban families will subsidize the Internet service provided to vacation properties of millionaires  in rural and remote areas.  The progressives are cheering the decision, but do they know that it will hurt the urban poor?
