Completely off topic but we're looking for new web hosting for this site.

Can anyone recommend a company based on experience? Preferably, we'd like a Canadian host company.
 
Might be a bit more work for you but have you considered Linode? We use it at work and I have the $5 a month plan for messing around. I know it's not Canadian but you get a lot more control.
 
I've used islandhosting since 2009 (formerly island net)
https://islandhosting.com/services/

They let me run cron jobs and batch graphics, thus I can produce my wind map.
Also ssh & scp.

Here's some options
