Gigabit Internet service is popping up in all sorts of places, from Google Fiber in Kansas City to major cities like Seattle and even a rural part of Vermont.

But a city with two gigabit Internet service is a rare thing indeed. That’s just what Vancouver, British Columbia, is becoming, with a startup called OneGigabit now launching to compete against Shaw, a Canadian ISP that already offers gigabit speed in parts of Vancouver, Calgary, and Edmonton.
