I'm guessing you're excluding Quebec? I can consistently download at 800k/sec (if the server will push the bits this fast) with Videotron. Is that really considered impossibly slow nowadays?! I don't even know what I'd do with more bandwidth, though now that I have a server the 100k/sec upload limit is a bit more of an irritation.

The caps on all residential videotron offerings are all ridiculously low though.

If you look around the world ~100MB/s residential connections are fairly common and a few places are rolling out 1Gbit/second. However, in the US you see everything from ~80MB/s down to 256k/s depending on your location. The fastest connection my mother can get is 256k/s which plenty fast for web surfing but don't try and watch HD video streams on that thing. And that's the problem 30 vs 100 MB/s is not that big deal but when much of the US can't get 1/10th that we have a problem. Edit: Mine is 20MBbit down, 2MBit up.
