I live in Central Canada (Manitoba). I ping 50 to Toronto which is quite far away despite being one province over. I actually pinged better to Chicago with 40. I understand Canada may not be the greatest place to start new servers but you could at least give me some better options. My next best pings are all over 100. Yes this game is playable with 100+ ping but not if you want to play it competitively. I know several countries have worse ping situations and some of those players will even say that 100 ping is fine because it's all they know. You can grow accustomed to it, you can even get used to compensating for the lag, but when high end duels have such a narrow margin of skill between players every ms of ping counts. I can play just as good as someone else but when a decisive battle comes, especially if it's LG, they're going to win every time by a large margin, even if our aim was [technically] equal.
