Well, I was with Bell for a few months, so I know, however it was
different when I lived in Edmonton in 2007, Shaw Cable traffic shaped
the hell out of everything, and when you confronted them on it they
lied to you and said they didn't do that; Telus on the other hand
hardly if ever traffic shaped at the time.

I am currently using Rogers for everything: Digital VIP + HDPVR (don't
have an HDTV, but it's the only way to get the PVR now), phone, and
High Speed Ultimate (50Mbps down/2Mbps up; 175GB cap, 0.50/GB if you
go over the cap).
