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. |
Found it. Also, looks like they're offering unlimited bandwidth for an extra $10/mo.
Why the distinction between DSL and Cable? For a given download/upload, does it matter?
