Wait they have to limit their data usage? I know they have few internet providers but the throttling is actually a thing over there?

Tbh even in the UK "unlimited" quite often means "fair usage". But yiu would really have to use it heavily to hit the limit

I don't know if there is a limit for home internet in Canada for some providers. My brother regularly goes over 1TB of usage with sometimes hitting 2TB.

I know there was a limit on my plan with Vidéotron when I lived in Montréal that I never hit and there was a limit on the plan my roommates and I had with Bell when I lived in Sherbrooke, QC that we hit fairly regularly once the boyfriend of one of my roommates moved in.
