Not all ISPs are fortunate enough to be in a town where there is an active

exchange with Netflix/Akamai/Google presence.

For instance, Montréal just recently oopened a peering exchange. While

this will eventually allow local ISPs to peer with

the big content providers, until this happens, small ISPs have to get that

content via paid transit links.

lolwut? Montreal isn't a small town, just not developed on peering side.
What's the cost of upgrading your IP transit in Montreal or getting a 10G
wave to Toronto for peering w/ content nowadays?  Not very much.
