Buy Canadian proxies. Ready in minutes.

Canada has a small number of very large carriers split along an old east-west telephone-monopoly line, Bell and its Atlantic arm in the east, Telus in the west, Rogers on cable nationally, with Videotron and Freedom as the fourth force. That legacy boundary still shows up cleanly in the routing data, and it produces a fact worth pausing on: on IPv6, the two biggest incumbents sit roughly nine to one apart. One of them serves almost all customers over IPv6 while another barely offers it at all, in the same country, measured the same day. A "Canadian IPv6 proxy" as a national claim is close to meaningless, because whether IPv6 even exists depends on which network the address belongs to.

That is the argument for reading the network picture on our free list rather than a flag and a count. Which Canadian networks the pool actually sits on decides IPv6, and it shapes how an address is judged. A number beside a maple leaf cannot tell you that; the per-network view can.

Most Canadian-IP work is retail and search monitoring across amazon.ca, Canadian Tire, Best Buy and the grocers, and Canada adds a wrinkle nowhere else in this set has: it is genuinely bilingual, and the French surface is a separate one. Because Quebec law now requires businesses to offer an equivalent French version of their sites, a French Canadian result set is its own tracking target rather than a translation of the English one. Search underlines the point. The google.ca domain redirects to google.com like every Google country domain does, so the domain never selects the country; a Canada-resolving IP is what returns Canadian results, and an English-Canadian versus French-Canadian view can differ enough to be worth watching separately. The automated version runs a Canadian exit through our scraper APIs.

One myth worth retiring while we are here: Canada is no longer the world's most expensive mobile market. The regulator's own index shows Canadian mobile prices down sharply since 2021, after Freedom Mobile was handed to Videotron's owner as the price of the Rogers-Shaw merger. On the rules, PIPEDA is still the federal privacy law (the 2022 reform bill died in early 2025 and a fresh attempt is only at second reading), and it carries a specific provision against harvesting addresses by automated means or collecting data through unlawful access. Quebec layers its own stricter regime on top. We sell the Canadian footprint for legitimate work; our terms ask you to respect all of that, and anything personal or behind a login is a lawyer's question, not ours.
