Cell Coverage in Canada: FAQ

Which carrier has the fastest speeds in Canada?

Based on crowdsourced speed tests across Canada, Telus currently leads in median download speeds. Compare carriers in the performance table above for the latest results.

How is the network performance calculated?

We aggregate speed tests from real devices in Canada and calculate the median download speed, upload speed, and latency values across all carriers. Results update as new tests are submitted, and we typically update the values every week.

What do the network performance values mean?

The network performance values summarize median download speed, upload speed, and latency across all carriers in Canada. Higher download and upload speeds with lower latency indicate a faster, more responsive connection.

What is the difference between an MNO and an MVNO?

MNOs own and operate the cellular network infrastructure, while MVNOs lease access to those networks and sell service under their own brand. MVNOs have the same network coverage as the MNOs they lease from.

How many carriers exist in Canada?

We currently are tracking 28 total carriers in Canada. There are 5 MNOs operating their own networks and 23 MVNOs.
