    Most of us do. Rogers and Bell (the only companies we can get internet infrastructure from) don’t often sell internet on its own. You usually have to get a cable or home phone package with it.

    If you’re lucky and some third party company is leasing some bandwidth from the existing fibre or cable infrastructure, you can pay a bit cheaper and just have an internet plan on its own (like with Start or Teksavvy or the others).

        I guess it depends where you live. I’m in Atlantic Canada and there aren’t any Bell or Rogers plans that have internet as standalone. Always in a bundle.

      Or if you’re in Toronto you get access to amazing ISPs like Benfield and fibrestream. $50 for 1Gb/s symmetric. Glorious
