Other than the obvious fuckery Is this because they don't have enough capacity to supply all their connections and would that be something that every ISP could do?

In a way it makes sense that a business might not want to build to full capacity if most users would tend not to use that. Cox would be the first to realize that they need to upgrade their infrastructure.

I'm not sure if this happens at all in Canada?
