Pre-Sale Fiber (Speed, installation)

[news]

[wireless]

I've been thinking about hopping on to Telus. however unless I can get fiber at actual fiber speeds (giving it a purpose) there's no point so my first question is:

Can I get 950/250 in Edmonton? Anything failing to exceed 300 down makes fiber pointless as a service offering.

And if can;

What can I expect for an installation to an apartment? Fiber is in my area, but not at my building as far as I know. Will a crew need to dig a trench or do crazy stuff that requires land-lord concent, like access to a utility room or something? How much of a challenge is it to get an apartment connected to fiber from the perspective of a tenant?
