	I read that as him thinking the link from Toronto to the US as being
still only a T1 (I believe it is a T3 just like us). What the CIRs on the 
ATM link is set to appears to be a deep dark secret. I believe from a recent
NTN experience that the CA*net link is a 10 meg slice of the NTN DS3, but
I have never seen a breakdown on what the CIRs on the various links are. 
As I recall the PVCs follow the old CA*net link map so there is more than
one link to allocate CIR on.
	By the way, notice 5 or so BCnet related posts without a single
"Make money fast" / "come see my web page" post? Mark this day down in 
history (it probably won't last ...)
