So cave and make the tariff deal. Then start throttling traffic and flat out blocking IPs from those that don't pay taxes. Why should Canada's infrastructure support non tax payers when it doesn't benefit? Trump's FCC just killed net neutrality. If it's such a bad thing, then wtf should Canada practice net neutrality with folks that suck up bandwidth on the infrastructure without paying taxes. Just saying. Malicious compliance is a thing, and sometimes you need to let your enemy win so that you can win too. It leaves everyone street cred and egos intact.
