To be totally fair, the caps were raised this past summer and then the raise was reversed later on when Shaw decided they couldn't maintain the cost/service level of those lines.
That said, it is fair to assume that as Shaw (and Telus eventually, I assume) deploys their Gigabit fiber across the entire city, there will be cheaper solutions available with an increased bandwidth cap. Personally, I don't think universally increasing the cap across all plans is would be the best business choice, nor would it be my personal preference. I would prefer to see different types of plans rather than just everything getting bigger and higher.
Maybe plans that have a lower speed but a higher cap. Possibly plans with more of a focus on upload speeds or a strict pay by usage plan. Options which give more value to what the customer needs, for example, rather than assuming that just because they want Nitro because of its 5MB upload speed that they need 100MB down or 500GB monthly transfer.
