In Delta we have a cable ISP that is totally unlimited, and they offer a 30Mbps package. Unlimited usage is a selling point for these guys so I think it's unlikely they'll start capping. If Telus wants to start metering our poo poo we'll just threaten to switch to DCCNet and I suspect they'll back off.

Sorry folks, unless the CRTC magically opens up the Canadian landscape for new providers to come in and lay fiber, internet in Canada is going to suck for quite a long time. If you want change, you need to deal with the government, not threatening to cancel Shaw or any other ISP and move to any other alternatives because they're all the same company in the end.
Unfortunately it's not likely that even a change in government will fix this :(
