They are not Bell.
They are Rogers.
The lesser of two evils.

They have the potential to be a great ISP, given the cable infrastructure that they hang off Bell poles and the really good customer support (Canadian!) and the millions of service vans they have in GTA, and elsewhere. However, being a part of Rogers Communications means that it's run by rich people completely out of touch with the common JOE, like myself, and are determined to squeeze every penny out of us, be it by overcharging for usage on the internet, subtly coercing you to subscribe to Cable TV by messing with live Hockey streaming or tv shows (CTV, CBC and Global all seem to have streaming problems at times..?) and finally by throttling your legal p2p data transferring. All we really have left is the $50 /mo. maximum overcharge fee for GB's over the limit! I'm sure it won't be long before that's gone in favor of so-called 'gigabyte insurance' or prepayment of gigabytes. In the end, I'm going to have to end my seeding (of my rarest stuff!) and the community will suffer. Teddy never would have let this happen! I PRAY FOR AMERICAN ISP COMPANIES TO GIVE US AMERICAN INTERNET HERE IN TORONTO. GOD BLESS AMERICA. WE SURF IN PEACE. PLEASE TAKE OUR DOLLARETTES AND FREE US FROM BLUE AND RED. America, are you listening? Dammit, they can't hear me!

Thank You

A Proud Canadian.

That was one of the most entertaining reviews I've ever read.
And I haven't read very many.
