Canada is way behind due to the few big telecoms like Bell, Rogers, etc not giving a crap about quality and anyone outside of city limits. Even some of the people within the cities are getting poor service do to partial fiber systems and outdated electronic equipment. Unless you have a decent smaller ISP around your area, you aren't getting much better than what you have now, unless your really lucky.

Southern Ontario had to put together a group called SWIFT and go to the smaller ISP's as well as private investors, then to the Provincial and Federal Government for funding for a new 100% fiber system. They just got the funding mid 2016 I believe, and are still in the process of planning. Right now they say phase 1, which is simply larger trunk lines to the main hubs, should be completed by 2020, which will just relieve some peak throttling. The actual home connections, phase 3 and 4, will be 2030 to 2040. This covers everywhere west of HWY 400 (Toronto), including Niagara. 

My area has had so many issues with throttling that the local water treatment/sewage facilities, etc, that completely rely on stable connection, have to now be constantly monitored on site. Not to mention between 5pm-11pm the internet isn't much better than dial up. Our county just reached a $1.5 million dollar deal with local ISP's Execulink and Kwic to install a complete fiber system with new electronic equipment. It will fix all the problems and around 10,000 people will have access up to 1gbps at reasonable prices. Sure enough, the fiber stops about 5km before our house out in the country, so if we're lucky we may be able to upgrade to 10mpbs-15mbps maybe, through the dsl that will tap off of that fiber trunk line. If not, it will still be 5mbps, but throttle free.

If you really really want good internet/packages anytime soon, you basically have to do your homework and move to where its good.

unlimited data here

I have no cap and i think its between 100 and 200 gigs per month.

Best thing of living on a third world country is that here, in Mexico, we dont have datacaps... All you can eat, for the same price... only problem is that connections are slow... so maybe it compensates Xp

400GB

Good to know it will still happen in my lifetime lol.

When I moved to Canada in 2002 we were one of the first to get 'always on' internet. Through cable, no limits, great speed for the time. However, as more people got connected it got slower on average, more unreliable and caps introduced (first only 60GB a month)

Now I live in a small town (11K people), SW Ontario. Beautiful spot so I don't want to move. I guess we're lucky it still works as well as it does. Just don't expect to much of the internet on holidays. The lowest my ps4 registered on a connection test was 139 kbps. Download at night, not because it's cheaper, because it goes much faster. Yet they still advertise with 'upto' 50mbps down, which is technically acurate, just not in peak hours. At least it's still more reliable than vgchartz is :)

200GB , then throttled, but I get 3 extra 200GB top ups to use to when ever I want during the year.

Jesus, I could not live with the data caps people have in here. 200GB? I go through that in a weekend.

Just looked up my monthly usage:
April: +1700GB
May: +1300GB

Most of it is seeding torrents tho

Not that much. Apple Music is used a lot by one member but other than that, it's really light.

2002? Your lucky. We got our 5mbps dsl in 2012. It was good until about 2014, and its been heavily throttled ever since. Bell and Rogers have had WAY to much control over the system and for far too long. Now that the smaller ISP's are fighting and growing in numbers and in size, its given the CRTC a reason to change the rules to allow for better competition and faster upgrades to the infrastructure. Its far from perfect, and Bell and Rogers still have too much control, but at least it allows for 2020 grade internet to get to the population by 2040. I don't even want to guess how long it would have taken otherwise.

Cable can be fast but sucks since its shared. Dsl is slower and cant travel as far but has dedicated lines. Fiber is the best of both worlds. Its super fast, can travel really far, and has dedicated lines. Once a home has fiber, it won't be needing a physical upgrade for a very long time, and shouldn't need service unless its accidently dug up or someone runs over a com box, which are both unlikely.

Some communities/counties are getting involved and are either working with their local ISP's or going it alone to lay fiber. It's an up front cost, but should end up saving money in the end, as well as bringing in profits while leasing the lines out to ISP's. My county heard about this, and thats why this new project is happening in my area. Not just because its necessary, but because its also a trial to see if its worthwhile, and if so, to try and convince the people that its worth spending county money to expand the project since it will benefit everyone sooner than later, as well as into the future. Being stuck at 5mbps until 2040 would make you a caveman by definition in technological terms. 

I highly doubt it'll actually take until 2040. Maybe the most remote areas, but the majority of Southern Ontario should have fiber by 2030. Once the ball starts rolling, and more people, counties, businesses, etc, get involved, the quicker it'll happen. Plus the fact that most of us aren't going to complain at all, unlike some city people. Being able to rip down country roads and tear up front lawns with no worry will get things done much quicker. "We'll fix the dirt and grass, you just get that fiber hooked up!" lol.
