I emailed FiberFortress, specifying 1 or 2 3U servers. He
replied with a half rack quote at $550. Still waiting for
a response to my second query.
I'm curious - why do you need your own hardware at a colo
site instead of just renting a VPS?
If you want a VPS inside Canada, the biggest player (with,
apparently, really good support) is
OVH.com.
Well, at least until/unless Quebec secedes, at which point
whether they're "in Canada" or not depends on where the
border gets drawn :-). They'll also colocate your servers.
Also with a good reputation is Blackbridge (
http://www.blackbridge.com/networks/facilities/location.html).
However, keep in mind that $50/month for 3U of colo rack
space is actually a really good deal... one I don't think
you'll be able to match in Canada, at least not at reputable
establishments. (I mean, seriously, you could put your
server in my rack for $50/month, but I can only guarantee
you about 10Mbps symmetric right now.)
