Quebec City ranks fastest internet in Canada as Montreal trails at 14th

Quebec City soars above the rest of Canada in an internet speed test — with Montreal trailing behind at 14th.

Tech website PCMag used data from its online speed test to gather just under 12,000 results between September 2017 and June 5, 2018 to figure out which city has the fastest internet speed in Canada.

According to the results, Quebec City leads the pack with an average of over three times the speed in Gatineau, the runner up. Toronto and Ottawa placed sixth and eighth, respectively, and Montreal didn’t even make the top 10, landing at 14th place.

In March, Bell — which was ranked the fastest service provider in Canada in the same report — announced it would be investing $854 million in high-speed internet for Montreal, so that number might change in next year’s rankings.
