Internet users across Canada are up in arms this week over a decision by the Canadian Radio-Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to allow Usage Based Billing (UBB) by Internet service providers.

Considering that Netflix just got its start up north, this is going to turn into an ugly fight between consumers and providers.
