Like just about every Western nation, Canada undertakes significant surveillance on its citizens. And, with invasive anti-terrorism acts, convoluted privacy laws, and the fact most of Canada’s traffic is handled by both Canadian and US data centers, it’s quite understandable that residents and visitors alike feel the need to up their privacy game.
That’s only half the story, though. A quality Canada VPN should also be able to unblock streaming content from Netflix, BBC iPlayer and more from around the world, and will allow you to tune into CTV, TSN and Crave when you’re away from home. All you need to do is connect to the right server, and you’re anywhere you want to be.
I’m in the USA and have decided to try SurfShark – 26 months on unlimited devices for $60, then the price goes up but you’re not bound by a contract and there’s a 30 day money back guarantee. They also have addons like antivirus, private search, alerts if your information is leaked to the web, etc.
PS. – When you’re signing up with SurfShark, there’s an additional option to get another 12 months (so 38 total) for ~$26, huge savings.
VPN use in Russia is surging as citizens try to bypass government’s tightening internet control
Russia’s internet has been subject to censorship for years, though major U.S. platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Google have been freely available, unlike in China where they are completely blocked. These companies however have operated under the threat of being blocked, especially if they host content that is perceived to be critical of the Kremlin.
Russia = Canada, Kremlin = Liberals.
PPS. – If you decide you want to sign up with Surfshark, using me as a reference will get you free additional months.
