Same junk in canada. The major isps say up to 5/10mb/s or what ever but its really what your line is regulated for and how many other people in the area are going at it.

My house is a big city gets the 5mb/s we are promised and a place i rented in a smaller city only got 1.5 mb/s.

If i am correct this fall (sept i think?) the CRTC in canada is voting whether or not to allow isps to give unlimited bandwidth. The Major isps (Bell/rogers) don't, the small ones usually do and for a cheaper price
