Alternatively, Digital Ocean's SSD backed vps's have ipv6 support in several but not all of their data centers, and that's also only 4.99/month (except USD). Off the top of my head I can't remember if they were offering ipv6 in their new Toronto data center, but that might be of interest to some people.

OVH has a new line of SSD-backed KVM-hosted VPS servers starting at C$4.99/month, with good performance, decent availability, pretty much an all-round good deal.

Except for one little thing... No IPv6 support.  At all.

According to the tech support rep I just spoke to, it's because the new 2016 lineup runs on OpenStack.  I'm a little unclear on how this makes it "impossible" to provide IPv6 functionality, but that's their claim.

It's 2016: new IPv4 addresses are no longer available.  IPv6 is supported by all major content providers (except Twitter, I think)- but OVH doesn't consider this important, apparently.

FYI: their SoYouStart and OVH Dedicated Server lines still provide IPv6 service; it's only the new 2016 VPS system that doesn't. Ironically, the older-generation (2014) system *did* support IPv6, but I can't order that any more.

Grrr.
