At that price point? Forget it. MTS offers up to 5mbps upload on DSL, but it's about double your price target. Shaw offers the same: 5mbps upload max.
Then you're looking at non-traditional options. I believe Voyageur Internet is the cheapest, where a burstable 10/10 service runs somewhere around $100/month but only if you have good line-of-sight to a tower.
Basically, 1. $40-$80/m is too low for anything better than farmer-grade DSL, here 2. Don't live in Canada if you want dirt-cheap internet.

What's the cheapest option for a Winnipeg business to get decent (especially upload) internet access when they aren't in a Shaw area (but are in MTS). Right now they have MTS crappy like 5Mbps down and 400kbps up. It's horrible.
We'd be fine with 5 or 10 (or more) down, but we want at least 2 up. The more up in our pricerange the better. Monthly traffic will be quite low in both directions, but we get large-demand bursts.
Price range is $40-$80/month. They are willing to pay (a bit) more upfront to save on the monthly fee, if required.
They need zero extra features (email boxes, web space, a/v, domain, etc), they just need faster internet. Lower latency than what garbage MTS gives would be better too. I already checked with MTS and what they want for
more upload bw is way too much (compared to what Shaw charges).
