As a life-long Canadian, Toronto has always been a bit regressive. As a current resident of rural Ontario, LTE is widely available and even the local farms have residential (uncapped!) fibre. Granted, I don't think there is much improvement on the cost. I don't think this is a new story either. I remember as a child in the mid-90s, the rural public schools had high speed (for the time, at least) internet connections even back then. I have recollections of the same time period that Toronto schools were still trying to figure out how to get online at all, and were experimenting with dialup. You even see this manifest in other areas. Like, it was only a year ago that it was big news that Toronto was soon going to be able to buy beer in grocery stores, which I found a bit funny. Rural Ontario has been able to buy a wide range of alcohol products in grocery stores since the 1960s.
