I don't.
I know direct customer that once they reached about 50% capacity they started 15-20% packetloss constantly. Also, any traffic originating from overseas was just horrid.

Cogent is an option in Canada, in select cities; as is WorldCom, Verio, AT&T/Allstream, Bell/TeleGlobe, C&W, 360Networks, Yipes, NAC, Williams, etc.
