I know my cable provider doesn't force me to have basic TV with the internet. I think there's one farther north/easy from me though that does require it. Then again it's a very small company.
The CRTC hasn't made a rule against it as far as I know. I believe it's just one of those "if you want to hurt your own business" type things. Then again cable companies are territorial. At least in Canada they are.
