Unfortunately the link won't go directly to the page, but if you start here:

http://teksavvy.com/en/res-internet.asp

And then in the very top-right of the page switch from ON to AB. Then click on "residential" in the top-right, followed by "High Speed Internet".

A bit cumbersome, but you'll see that it is there.

Nucleus, a Calgary-based company offers some cable plans. They are pretty much the same cost as Shaw but have a slightly higher cap (for example, Extreme is 125 gigs instead of 100).

There are a few other competitors in the Calgary area (or at least companies that offer service in the Calgary area). This is a list that I came across: http://www.canadianisp.ca/

The site is also a bit cumbersome, but it will give you s starting point if you are determined to switch from Shaw. The majority provide DSL, however a few offer cable plans. It at least gives you a starting point.

Personally, I'm going to wait until the dust settles before I take any action. I want to ensure that these competitors will still be allowed to compete in the new environment.
