Canadian internet is a dumpster fire due to the Bell/Rogers monopolies. Anti competitive behavior is ignored - Bell configure their 'VDSL2' lines into a non-compliant signal to lock out non Bell modems (anything that implements real VDSL2 standard cannot synchronize to showtime so does not work), 3rd parties like Teksavvy are forced to pay for system access and then on top have to pay a compensation ['inconvenience'] fee for each line which ends up passed on as a cost to their customers who get screwed with some of the most expensive and poorly performing internet in the world. ISPs who install their own infrastructure get screwed on insane backhaul fees which get passed to consumers as high internet service fees and the ISP has to bandwidth shape and restrict line speed to avoid backhaul saturation or 'excess usage' fees. The Liberal government actively encourages the abuse and blocks attempts to get anything fixed either through the courts or parliament (which, like any dysfunctional democracy, rarely sits now - but that's a different story).
