Canada is behind at implementing new internet technology
Internet speed varies widely in different parts of Canada — and is generally slower in the west, according to measurements from 60,000 locations across the country.
The 126,000 tests (including multiple tests from some locations) were conducted by ordinary internet users between May and December 2015 using a tool posted online by the Canadian Internet Registration Authority. They measured dozens of different indicators of internet performance, including upload and download speeds, although not all have been analyzed yet.
