Need advice on best vpn for Canada after recent online privacy changes

those "horror stories" about c-11 massively overblown lmao. been here entire life, nothing changed except youtube occasionally forcing some canadian music in my feed. vpn unnecessary unless u absolutely need us-only content

Montreal ISPs notorious for injecting tracking headers into web traffic. First week here my ad profile completely transformed despite using same accounts. Privacy erosion happens subtly but rapidly

Dude just enjoy montreal's incredible food scene instead of worrying about streaming services!! Legit best poutine spots don't even have wifi, take it as sign to unplug while here lol

Literally any vpn will work for basic streaming… The real issue nobody mentions is BANKING. Tried logging into chase once from canadian ip and boom-instant fraud lock. No override possible. Became 2hr customer service nightmare

yo whatever u decide skip the airport/tourist trap vpn kiosks when u land. absolute scam charging 2-3x normal rates preying on new arrivals. sign up online before leaving using home address

Changed jobs last year requiring relocation from NYC to Toronto. Tried 4 different services before nordvpn finally solved hulu/hbo issues. Their obfuscated servers somehow avoid detection even with canadian payment method

Check if ur building includes internet first!!! Many montreal apartments bundle rogers/bell service in rent. They specifically throttle vpn protocols on these packages to "maintain network integrity"

im canadian who travels us regularly for work… most ppl i know just use free browser vpns or mobile data. whole industry built to scam paranoid americans who think canada = communist censorship lmaoooo

Crucial to understand how deep packet inspection works before choosing provider. Canadian telecoms employ much more sophisticated traffic analysis than us counterparts, easily identifying and throttling encrypted tunnels that lack proper obfuscation

Montreal tech worker perspective: rogers business line + custom openvpn setup = zero issues two years running. Consumer lines different story entirely. Check if employer will subsidize business class connection before wasting $ on vpn subscriptions

got family in calgary i visit yearly. Discovered hilariously easier solution than vpn drama: $15 prepaid us sim card kept active for streaming device. Technically against tos but works flawlessly

forget streaming - adjust ur expectations immediately re: canadian internet PRICES. prepare for serious sticker shock coming from states. paying $95/month for what used to cost me $45 in chicago

Montreal specifically blocks major vpn provider IP ranges at random intervals during high traffic periods. Documented this happening 7 times last quarter alone. Unreliability makes annual subscriptions questionable value proposition
