I remember hearing about a city in the US that tried to implement a municipal non-profit ISP, only to get brutally attacked by every nearby private ISP. Have there been any attempts in Canada for towns or cities to start their own internet services, or is the law rigged to forbid it?

I think that's just YouTube being YouTube. I'm with Rogers and their "Extreme Plus" cable internet and YouTube can be incredibly sluggish at times. I find it varies on the video and also the quality selected.

This happens even with Verizon FIOS, so yeah I'd say it's just Youtube.
