But how do they connect?  Other than Bell, the only company with twisted 
pair cables would be Allstream and their cables don't much go into 
residential areas.  In residential aread, your choices for a wired 
connection are Bell and Rogers. Your Sprint service, if using twisted 
pair, is likely coming over Bell wires. About the only significant 
exception I can think of, is a new subdivision in (IIRC) Richmond Hill, 
where there was a court case that ruled Bell didn't have an automatic 
right to run cable.
