We're a market of at most 35 million. There aren't too many affordable
datacentres in Canada for smaller companies. iWeb are an exception -
they own their datacentres and are competing on a global scale.

That said, at a previous VPS/dedicated hosting company for which I
worked, I would have pretty much moved anywhere in Canada to seek out a
good facility, and to establish hardware vendor relations to get them a
Canadian presence. I still would I liked working with them so much.
