Why More Canadians Are Switching to IPTV in 2026
More Canadians are switching from cable to IPTV in 2026 for three concrete reasons: dramatically lower cost, far more channels, and no contracts. Here's the breakdown.
The cost gap is huge
Cable in Canada runs $80–$150+ per month. A SONIX IPTV subscription starts at $6.58/month on the annual plan, for 54,000+ channels and 195,000+ movies and shows. That's the single biggest reason Canadians switch.
