We are being throttled currently?
@Acekiller not intentionally, but there seems to be a system issue that's affecting some PM customers. If you look at some of the links @sheytoon provides, there's more background. Basically some of us (myself included, it seems) are unable to get beyond about 70Mbps download speeds on speed tests, despite being in an area of good LTE coverage, with carrier aggregation enabled, and even performing multiple tests to account for network load and so on. Telus and Koodo customers are routinely getting results much higher than this, and the LTE network should indeed be capable of higher speeds.
In real-world terms, in most usage, you really won't see any issues with the current throughput. There is plenty for streaming audio or HD video, for using social media or browsing the web, etc. You might notice it downloading large files if you do that from time to time. But it is definitely apparent when you look at speed test benchmark results. Again, real world, 99 times out of 100, you're not really going to notice it.
