Independent Canadian internet advice

About InternetAdvice.ca

InternetAdvice.ca helps Canadians compare home internet, business internet, rural internet, Starlink, and provider options without the sales pressure.

We are not owned by an internet provider. Our guides are written to help readers understand the tradeoffs before they choose a plan, switch providers, or sign a contract.

Our Mission

Choosing internet in Canada can be harder than it should be. Prices change, promo rates expire, availability depends on the exact address, and the fastest plan on paper is not always the best fit for a home, apartment, cottage, or small business.

InternetAdvice.ca exists to make that decision easier. We explain the differences between fibre, cable, fixed wireless, 5G home internet, satellite internet, and reseller plans in plain language.

Our goal is simple: help readers ask better questions before they order internet service.

Who Runs InternetAdvice.ca

InternetAdvice.ca is published and edited by Kelly Hanna, with telecom review and technical input from Michael Latymer on provider guides, Starlink articles, rural internet pages, and business internet content. You can learn more on our author and reviewer page.

How We Research Internet Providers

Internet availability in Canada is local. A provider can be excellent at one address and unavailable, slower, or less practical a few blocks away. That is why our guides avoid one-size-fits-all claims.

  • We check official provider information first. Provider websites, plan pages, availability tools, support pages, and terms are our starting point.
  • We consider the connection type. Fibre, cable, DSL, fixed wireless, 5G, and satellite do not perform the same way.
  • We look at real-life limits. Upload speeds, equipment fees, promo expiry dates, building wiring, installation limits, and contract terms can matter as much as download speed.
  • We use cautious wording. Availability depends on the exact address, building, and unit. We do not claim that a provider is available everywhere in a city or province.
  • We update important guides when provider details change. Internet pricing, plan names, and availability can change quickly.

Our Editorial Standards

Every guide on InternetAdvice.ca is written for real readers first. We try to make each article practical, cautious, and easy to use.

  • Independence: Provider payments do not decide our recommendations.
  • Clear tradeoffs: We explain when a cheaper plan, faster plan, rural plan, reseller plan, or business plan may not be the right fit.
  • Address-level caution: We remind readers to check availability at their exact address, building, or unit before ordering.
  • Corrections: If we find an error, we update the page so readers are not relying on old or incorrect information.

Provider payments do not control our recommendations. We aim to explain the best fit by reader situation, not by which company pays the most.

When money relationships exist, they should be disclosed clearly on the relevant page.
