$100CAD for 60/6 copper which works fine but the price sucks. The only wired alternative is $70 for 3/0.3mbps DSL
Fuck Canadian ISPs and their government enablement.
I pay 65 for gigabit fiber with Telus. At the end of the 2 year deal they'll give me a better deal or Shaw will, I don't care who my isp or phone provider is, whoever gives me cheaper with more gets my money. Just be assertive with them, sometimes you'll be on the phone for 4 hours, but you save money and get faster speeds.
Fucking lol that is just a straight up wrong. You are not getting any discounts from either of these companies whatsoever. They will literally disconnect you before allowing a discount. That's what competition is for and theres none of that here. They know you have basically nothing without them.
You do you. I'll keep enjoying my cheaper internet. Have a good one
