Canada Leads World In Internet Usage Ratio

Image
The United States may be first in sheer number of Internet users (projected to be 55 million this year), but Canada far exceeds any other country in terms of Internet penetration. Four out of every 10 Canadians use the Internet. What makes Canada so unique? As with other countries with high levels of Internet users, it is a mature economy with an excellent telecommunications structure and a supportive government environment. But could it also be that climate exerts an influence here? Leisure pursuits outside the home are likely to be restricted in Canada during the winter months
