Web Hosting Offers and Requests

I Need Canadian Hosting (fast, cheap, more...)

I need a host for a new site. Servers need to be located in Canada.

Looking for a good canadian hosting company that offers good packages.
High speed data transfer, preferably multiple domains hosted on one account for one price, lots of email accounts, php/mysql (multiple databases), Mod_Rewrite Enabled .

Oh, and a free domain name, or two, would be nice, but not important.
Virtual hosting prefered, with an option to upgrade to dedicated once the traffic warrants it.

If you are hosting sites in Canada tell me who your host is and monthly cost and a link to their site.

thanks

I'm Canadian, but I fail to see why you'd need Canadian hosting specifically. The US stuff is 10 times better in terms of service and value, and most of the top US hosts can be reached from anywhere in Canada (which is more than I can say for the top Canadian counterparts sometimes).

If it's for SE-type purposes, register a .ca and you'll have yourself an equally effective but cheaper workaround. www.sibername.com does cheap .ca registrations.

As far as who I host with, I have a dedicated box with Sectorlink. You won't find a Canadian host that'll even TOUCH these guys (believe me, I've looked...Rogers, Blue Genesis, Bell, Black Dot, Black Sun, Fibernet, Magma, and others I can't even think of off the top of my head). My monthly cost doesn't apply, since I have a custom configuration but their plans are all on the site.

I'm not sure how their 'Nix support is, since I'm an NT-type, but for a Windows box these guys just plain kick ***.

No need to get worked up he is correct. Our hosting in the US generaly tends to be better and cheaper. And being over here will not effect performance.
I will host a .ca domain if you wish. Our hosting is affordable and reliable.
