I know I am around the 100GB/month provided to me currently on Xtreme which used to be 125GB/month usage. There's a new resident in the house as well which adds to the load.

Also, I am just infuriated by the whole thing and how the CRTC is keeping Canadian telecommunications in the anticompetitive stone-age.

http://www.canadianisp.ca/cgi-bin/ispsearch.cgi shows 40 ISPs available to Calgary, some offering 200GB to unlimited usage for under $40 a month for residential services. Most are in the 6-10 Mbps speeds but I will gladly sacrifice speed for more leeway than Shaw in terms of download limits.
