As the webmaster of a political website, I am a bit concerned that the "content" debate seems at first to be limited to commercially–generated and for–profit content.ndpsocialists.ca is an overtly noncommercial and political website with no commercial content (beyond referring our visitors to a Cuba Tours business); and my concern as webmaster is more with access to our site being restricted by ISPs than it is with the copyright debate. To me, net neutrality must include unrestricted access to all content on the net, unfiltered by the ISPs we pay to deliver the entire world to our desktops.
The public consultation period ended on July 13 2010, at which time this website was closed to additional comments and submissions. News and updates on progress towards Canada’s first digital economy strategy will be posted in our Newsroom, and in other prominent locations on the site, as they become available.
Between May 10 and July 13, more than 2010 Canadian individuals and organizations registered to share their ideas and submissions. You can read their contributions — and the comments from other users — in the Submissions Area and the Idea Forum.
