Of course not.

I remember when I first moved to the US and saw the broadband and cell phone prices. Corruption american style.

    Don’t visit Canada then. American prices look dirt cheap compared to what we have here.

    Did you forget to convert back to USD and the number is just higher?

    No I did everything in USD. It was a few years back so things might’ve changed but while I was still on Reddit I discussed it with some others and at least based on what they were saying, Canadian internet and phone prices were considerably higher than American. It doesn’t help that there’s a duopoly here.
