Petitions usually do nothing, but I signed this one, just in case:

Its already there. I signed up for Bell's "Fibe" service after getting fucked for being one of the first people to sign up for their DSL servince in 2000.

Ten years later, I start getting $60 overage charges. Hey! We'll be able to compete with the world as long as we have oil sands and baby seals to kill. Fuck the future!

Someone should pound the living shit out of this country before it dies from selling off its natural resources. Except for pounding out shit for American corporations, we completely missed the the industrial revolution. We still live off selling whale blubber, fish, and animal skins. Technological advancements? That's just a way for our pathetic monopolies to milk us for every cent we have.

There is no more backwards nation on the face of the Earth.
