I won't answer with specifics, because as a non-profit the numbers are skewed with some discounts we get (and I really don't know what the real cost is after they are all applied).
However, one of the first things I did when I started was get a new ISP because they were literally on the equivalent of Telus residential ASDL (500k up, 3MB down). As I recall, the quotes I got were roughly $400 for 1-2 MB/s duplex, normally around 100GB monthly transfer. The overages charges made what Shaw is set to charge to residential customers look very reasonable.
I will see if I can dig out my spread sheet for it tomorrow and post some specific numbers, but it was pretty universal that it was twice as expensive at least for business customers.
