    Your internet and mobile phone service kicks the UKs arse.

      Oh no, oh dear everything no. Maybe in a few cities sure, but where I am I literally have no functioning internet anymore (they let the lines degrade below 1 Mbps) and have massive patches where cell phones don’t work at all (love when I hit a antelope and have to stand on the roof of my car to maybe get enough signal to call a tow).

      Like no joke we have the worst and most expensive telecom in the developed (and a lot of the developing) world.

        I should have considered the fact that I was always within an hour or so of Toronto.

          The GTA is not really indicative of Canada at this point. It is the center of the universe after all…

            No, appreciated. I had heard good things though.

              Maybe from Telus/Rogers/Bell media. Its an issue really, the pro Canadian telecom propaganda is very much a thing here. I am told I have “great internet available” even where I am and then if I try to actually get it they ether say never mind or try and give me a cell modem. I am not alone on this ether, its a major issue.

      To be fair two cans and a piece of string kicks the UKs arse when it comes to telecommunications.
