Poll: Will ADS-B Inevitably lead to user's fees?

[Jay Honeck]

Over on VAF, a large contingent of pilots are convinced that ADS-B was designed for, and will inevitably lead to, user's fees. Given the tracking capabilities inherent with the system, this is certainly plausible.

What do you think?

Nav Canada is the quasi-private company that provides ATC to aircraft in Canadian airspace and is funded entirely by user fees.

Canada has not needed ADS-B to support collection of user fees. Canada is not mandating ADS-B and no one has mentioned any plans to do so.
