Ontario, Canada $82 after taxes for 400/200 A second fiber provider is coming to my street (doing locates now) and they are $82 after tax for 1000/1000.
Edit: 82 cad is 62 usd
What are the 2 providers. I can't get anything better than 50 up in Quebec unless I go with Bell.
Vianet - a provider out of Sudbury
Lakeland networks - a provider out of Bracebridge.
Ontario has a pretty aggressive fiber/broadband roll out right now. https://www.ontario.ca/page/ontario-connects-making-high-speed-internet-accessible-in-every-community
My family cottage is getting Bell fiber this summer too.
You could check with fizz in Québec, it's owned by videotron.
They have:
100 Mbps for 49$ cad.
200 Mpbs for 55$ cad.
400 Mpbs for 59$ cad.
