man I have been with shaw for ... must be 7 or 8 years now (ever sence they came out with high speed) and it has always been 45.00/month. you must have gotten a promo or something.. I know I missed out on all the promos as I was on Shaw befor it was actualy released as a "tester account"

Did you buy your modem? That knocks the price down a fair bit.

I've used Shaw for 5 years and they have been a good internet provider. There have only been maybe 2-3 times that I can remember thT I have not been able to get online but in those cases they fixed the problem fast. You may have to wait for ages on hold with them to get help but they are are always good at fixing a problem.

I personally HATE Telus as a corporation and will not give them a single dime unless I am forced to.

you never had the option of buying it untill the last few years and I did a couple years ago and it knocks it down exactly 5 bucks a month so I now pay 40.00 per month. well actualy more like 150ish / month but that includes digital cable with 2 recivers (one normal one HD) and digital phone and internet.
