We need this law here in Canada. While they are NOT ATM shutting down copper POTS, they are no longer selling it to consumer's from the main companies. Some smaller ones will offer it, but if there is a problem with the SLAM in your area for DSL, you're told "deal with speeds or switch to copper cable or fiber". They will not replace the SLAMs
