My own bills:
Internet (Beanfield): $40/mo including taxes.
Cell (Freedom): $34/mo per phone, incl taxes.
Beanfield may not be available everywhere, but Teksavvy has similar plans.
Beanfield is only available to some condominium users in major downtown cities. It is not an available option to most Canadians, especially the vet tech in this article.
It's a shame that the article doesn't specify which town, but it does say University town.
If I were to guess, especially since she's a vet tech, is that she lives in Guelph or Windsor. Other vet universities in Ontario are in much larger cities.
If that's the case, she has quite a few of options for phone and internet.
Teksavvy is available nearly everywhere and I know they have similar plans because I was a customer.
Definitely not the case. They serve suburbs and cities. I live semi rurally and they are not a possible option.
She lives in a college town. The vast majority of people in Canada live in urban centers. So, for most single people in Canada, spending less than $200/mo in Internet+phone is trivially simple.
