John Rafferty is adding his voice to those upset over a CRTC decision to allow Internet service providers the right to cap data downloads.
The Thunder Bay-Rainy River MP says it's going to allow the ISP's to charge more and consumers will suffer.
"What it means for people in northern Ontario who rely on broadband services and the Internet for their livelihood or for their entertainment, it will be disastrous," says Rafferty.
Internet users are being driven to an on-line petition to oppose the ruling.
CRTC chairman Konrad von Finckenstein is to appear before a Commons committee on the issue today.
