Protection For All Your Devices
What Is a Canadian IP Address?
When you browse the web, your ISP assigns your device an IP address which contains information about your location. If you connect in Canada, you’ll usually get a Canadian IP address.
Some Canadian sites use your IP location to determine what you’re allowed to see and might block your access if you’re not in Canada. When you change your IP address to Canada with a VPN, websites assume you are in Canada even when you’re abroad. This gives you access to Canadian news updates, content suggestions, and services.
Why Use a VPN for a Canadian IP Address?
Tor, proxies, and VPNs can give you a Canadian IP address, but a VPN is the only option that’s designed for choosing specific IP locations. It’s more difficult, less secure, and less reliable to get a Canadian IP with Tor and proxies.
Tor usually has a slower network connection which makes it a poor choice for streaming, torrenting, and gaming. Some proxies are faster than Tor, but most don’t encrypt your online activity or only use SSL encryption.
Get a Canadian IP from PIA with a single click on your mobile, tablet, or PC. Our VPN uses 10 Gbps network connections for seamless HD streaming, and applies unbreakable encryption to protect your personal information from cybercrooks. Take advantage of our advanced features including a Kill Switch, multi-hop, and split-tunneling for unmatched privacy.

What Can I Do with a Canadian IP Address?
Stream Canadian Shows While Traveling
Being on holiday is no excuse to miss the latest episode of The Last of Us. Yes, some Canadian broadcasters restrict their content so that only Canadians can watch. But when you use a Canadian IP these sites assume you are viewing from Canada, giving you access from anywhere.
File your taxes without issues
The CRA probably won’t accept your holiday as a valid excuse for missing your tax deadline. But you may have issues accessing your tax account abroad, especially if you’re using NETFILE. Avoid login issues and file your taxes while sunbathing in Florida with a Canadian IP.
Access Your Accounts While Abroad
Your bank and other sites usually check your IP location for security purposes. Canadian websites often expect you to have a Canadian IP otherwise you might get blocked. Use a Canadian IP address to log in to your Royal Bank of Canada, Toronto-Dominion, and Scotiabank accounts while abroad.
Keep Track of Canadian News
Your phone gives you location-based news notifications. If you leave Canada, you’ll stop getting Canadian news notifications and start getting them for the country you're in. Use a Canadian IP address on your phone so you don’t miss the latest goings-on back home.
Save Money on Travel to Canada
Booking flights and hotels can be cheaper from the destination. If you're planning a visit home for the summer, use a Canadian IP address to compare prices, so you can pocket extra cash to buy gifts for your loved ones.
Improve your Online Privacy
PIPEDA helps protect Canadian internet users’ right to privacy. A Canadian IP gives you this same level of protection, as local sites can’t collect your data without your consent. A Canadian VPN also helps you stay more anonymous online because it masks your true IP.

What Is a VPN?
A VPN is software to improve your privacy online. It encrypts your internet data and routes it through a secure private server. This makes it unreadable to third parties, and prevents network snooping.
The VPN server also masks your real IP and gives you one from its own location. When you connect to a Canadian VPN, you get a Canadian IP. This means you can access websites and services which may be unavailable outside the country.
