Public bug reported:
The Canadian ubuntu mirror at ca.archive.ubuntu.com is very slow. It seems to
be throttled at around 20-30k/sec around the clock without exception.
Since after setting the timezone to a Canadian City ubuntu automatically
defaults to the Canadian mirror, especially new users who don't know how to
change the repository have to wait for hours for their first update to finish
downloading. Already a simple "apt-get update" takes several minutes.
It would be desirable if Canadian users per default would experience a
download speed which allows them to update their system in a timely
manner.
