But I'll continue to pay $2.95 CANADIAN for unlimited. I can't believe people pay that much for dial up.

Sometimes, holding onto Dial-up isn't out of choice!

An ex-coworker who lives on the other side of the hill from me and has DSL.

On my side.. nothing! Cable?... nope!

My only option is Satalite and that doesn't sound all that appealing to me!

Instead of trying to eek every last penny from dial-up users or "forcing" them to go broadband, why don't they work harder at coverage? (other than it costs them money to set up the infrastructure?!)

If you think there is money to be made by offering
broadband in your area, then why not start your own
company.
