That is the wrong question to ask. The real question is who has been
handing out 206.116/16 like they were dealing cards? A quick look
at the announcments and in whois.arin.net reveals a bunch of /24
spread out over Canada.
Historically, and currently, the Canadians crowd the top of
the Tony Bates cidr list. Why is that?

P.S. I see iSTAR has 206.116/16.... why don't they announce it?
