Watch Hulu in Canada

It’s a pity that you can’t watch Hulu in Canada without a VPN. Canada is America’s closest neighbor, geographically and culturally. However, we’ve got no choice but to play by the rules, and it seems that more and more these days, the cool stuff coming out of America is just not available in Canada – or available with restrictions.  Stuff like Hulu, Netflix, and Pandora

The good news is that with a VPN, you can get access to all of the above, and more (like the BBC iPlayer).

Unfortunately, because of distribution restrictions, licenses, and contracts between Hulu and the networks that own the shows, the TV shows on Hulu can only be streamed to American IP addresses.  The same thing goes for Pandora.  As for Netflix, there is a Canadian version available, but it’s missing a lot of the new releases and in general, has a smaller library than the American version.

The good news is that because you’re in Canada, there are basically no restrictions on VPN access (unlike countries with Internet censorship like China and Iran).  That means that you have hundreds of choices of VPN companies that can get you can American IP address so you can watch Hulu in Canada.

The bad news is that this can be overwhelming.  With so many choices, someone who has never used a VPN before can get a bit confused about which one is the best for them.  There are lots of resources on Mr. VPN to help you make the right decision.

We’ll get you started with a few key choices.

Hide My Ass for NUMBER OF IP’s

12VPN for CUSTOMER SERVICE

StrongVPN for SPEED

(see below for more details about these Top 3 VPN services)

12VPN for CUSTOMER SERVICE

12VPN really does have a friendly team that’s willing to help you with whatever you need. Some VPN services tend to answer your questions quickly and coldly – we’ve dealt with quite a few over the years and 12VPN stands out as one of the friendliest. Some other good things about 12VPN is that they tend to have VPNs for more types of devices than other services, so if you’re using something that isn’t quite as popular as iPhone or Windows XP (i.e. Symbian Devices), you could check these guys out and they can most likely get you set up.

 

Hide My Ass – I started counting how many US locations Hide My Ass had and got bored. There are tons of locations in The US alone, which makes it perfect for getting a US IP address. Not only that, but along with US IP address, you get 26 other countries, including The UK, which is another popular IP location (ever heard of BBC iPlayer?).  Hide My Ass is VERY well priced (the cheapest of the three VPNs featured here. They’ve got free server switching, a forum, Live Support, and their VPN is super fast.  I thought for a long time about something negative to say about Hide My Ass.  Well, nothing comes to mind. Did I mention there’s a 30 day money back guarantee?

StrongVPN for SPEED

Definitely the fastest VPN featured here.  They’ve also got the widest range of plans available. This can be confusing to new customers, but trust us, if you jump through all the hoops that StrongVPN throws at you (their site really is HUGE), you’ll be very happy with your VPN service.  Speed matters when you want to watch Youtube, Hulu, or Netflix and absolutely hate waiting for video to buffer.

Installation of the VPN takes only a few minutes (including the download), and if there’s any confusion, all of these sites have live support, color PDF instructions, or both.  You don’t have to be a genius to get started.

These will work for most all devices and operating systems including Mac, Windows, Linux, iPhone, iPad, iTouch, Android, Nokia (and other smart phones) – if you’ve got something else we’d suggest 12VPN as they’ve got the most VPN protocols available of any VPN company out there.
