Where Canadian tech connects.
The Circuit is an independent tech publication for Canadians. We cover the tech stories worth your time, from here and around the world, with what you actually need to know: what a launch costs here, whether it's available, and what changes for you. We also cover the useful and fun side of tech: guides, gadgets, games and the stories everyone's talking about.
What we cover
- Telecom and internet: wireless and home internet pricing, carrier moves and CRTC decisions.
- Policy: privacy, AI regulation, online streaming and news rules, digital taxes and data sovereignty.
- Canadian companies: startups, funding, acquisitions and layoffs, from Shopify to the seed stage.
- Is it in Canada yet? Device and service launches, CAD pricing and feature availability.
- Cloud and AI: AI tools and companies, data centres and compute, and how it all affects you.
- The fun and useful stuff: how-tos, apps and gadgets worth trying, games, science and space.
The Daily Briefing
Every weekday morning we publish the Daily Briefing: the handful of tech stories worth your time, each with a short note on why it matters. It's built to be read in under five minutes.
Our standards
The short version is below. The full version is on our editorial standards page.
- Every factual claim links to its original source: the filing, the ruling, the press release or the reporting outlet that broke it.
- Prices are in Canadian dollars unless we say otherwise.
- We don't accept payment for coverage. If that ever changes for a specific post, it will be clearly labelled.
- When we get something wrong, we fix it and note the correction at the bottom of the post.
