After the Montreal-based national telecom launched its 8Gbps fibre internet plans earlier this year, it filed an application with the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to offer an 8Gbps speed tier for wholesale services, and the Commission has now approved the application on an interim basis.

Nope. Double the speed, double the fine.

I get 3 Gbps now but I cannot get much more than 1 Gbps in practice due to the wrong in my home. Even if I had 8 Gbps, my network is not getting any faster.

I get gigabit, and that tests out to 700MBPS... and i can never saturate it. Not sure why i would need a bigger pipe for a long time.
