If you find a new provider, let us know. I'm ready to switch, even if the new provider uses someone else's infrastructure to get it to me.
Correction time:

As much as dislike Telus for the adverts, bandwidth caps, etc, I feel I must say it wasn't their service dragging me down. It was likely a combination of needing a new wireless router, and a PRAM rest of my Mac that was needed. Apparently, sometimes Macs don't "just work", and updates can mess up connectivity.

That said, if a new ISP comes around offering cheaper service, I'll strongly consider it. Oh, on a side note, the MemExpress Jockey told me that people on Telus have their own dedicated pipe, whereas Shaw customers could be theoretically slowed down by a torrent-happy neighbour.
