Here in my city in Canada my cable provider (Rogers) supports native IPv6 but Bell Fibe (fibre direct to the house) does not.

To make things more confusing, if I were to buy cable internet from a reseller (e.g. Teksavvy), they don't support IPv6 over cable.  If I were to buy fibre internet from Teksavvy, they do support IPv6 but getting it to work involves using your own router, SFP module & knowing how to configure it.

So Rogers Cable is the only "plug & play" IPv6 provider in my neighbourhood at the moment.
