"Canada’s broadband caps ‘almost a human rights violation’ says Netflix exec"
"The problem in Canada is… they have almost third-world access to the Internet,"
https://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/the...st-human-rights-violation-says-172255648.html
"It’s not just Netflix, either. Ookla, an online performance measurement outfit, says Canada’s 5.67 Mbps average network speed puts it 53rd in the world – and below the global average of 7.6 Mbps. Hong Kong enjoys a blazing 61 Mbps, South Korea isn’t far behind with 45 Mbps, and Kazakhstan doubles our speed, with 10.77 Mbps. Back in the Canadian slow lanes, if you’re lucky enough to live in a part of the country where your ISP even bothers to offer anything above 10 Mbps, you’ll pay a triple-digit premium, and even then you’re paying only for theoretical top speed. Your mileage may – and, let’s face it, will – vary."
