Noticed a press release this morning which stated the CAIP (Canadian Association of Internet Providers) had defined a 'voluntary' code of conduct for Canadian ISP's. FYI. http://www.caip.ca/caipcode.htm - paul

And here's what I had to say to someone on another list:
ISP's. What's good for ISP's is not necessarily good for the Internet. The CAIP has been quite happy to climb on board with the government
Let's get one thing perfectly clear here. CAIP is *NOT* climbing on board with the government. A Government of Canada department called Industry Canada started CAIP by calling on several ISP's (all telephone companies or their subsidiaries) to form a Canadian ISP organization. When the flap occurred in Ontario regarding ISDN rates, some members of the coalitiona against Bell were also invited to join. CAIP has held most of it's meetings at the Industry Canada offices in Ottawa. Guests at the meetings include such notables as the RCMP advising CAIP on Internet content rules.

Wow. Some really earth shaking items in that code of conduct, such as: 2. CAIP members pledge to comply with all applicable laws. I bet that item took hours for everyone to agree on. It sounds like something out of a Dilbert comic strip.
