Canadians love to be entertained. Whether tuning into our favourite TV show, watching a movie, listening to music or playing the trendiest video game, we are a nation that loves to see, watch and experience the latest and best on-demand home entertainment options.
In Canada, the number of households with streaming services is expected to grow over the next half-decade. In 2017, just over half (57%) of households used at least one on-demand streaming service. By 2023, just over 123% of households will use an on-demand streaming service, according to a DigitalTVResearch report.(2) This increase reflects not just the number of households choosing to subscribe to on-demand services but an increase in the number of subscription services in each Canadian household.
According to studies from Vividata, a Toronto-based not-for-profit industry organization, where more than 35,000 Canadians are surveyed on their cable and streaming use, Canadians are choosing streaming services over cable but not abandoning regular TV just yet.
Only Canadians with access to internet connections with high download speeds will get completely uninterrupted use of streaming services, such as Netflix, Crave and Amazon Prime. (Take the Finder: Internet Speed Test to find out.)
A year earlier, Netflix Canada released Always By My Maybe, another rom-com movie that was filmed in Vancouver, BC, was released to critical praise for its more realistic portrayal of Asian-American relationships.
In recent years, Amazon has been upping its game and featuring award-winning original content, which may be part of why it now captures approximately 25% of the market share in Canada.
Finally, the family-focused Disney brand also threw its hat into the ring when it launched Disney Plus in 2019. Since its launch, the on-demand streaming channel has converted many families into streaming households. Not only does Disney Plus feature all the familiar classics but the latest from smash-hit production companies like Pixar, Marvel Universe and the Star Wars franchise. Check out our Disney Plus guide.
Three streaming services are widely available across the globe: Netflix, Disney Plus and Amazon Prime. Based on results from the Finder: Most Popular Streaming Service report,(14) Netflix is still the most popular streaming service in Canada. Roughly 42% of the 1,192 Canadian respondents say they currently have access to a subscription to Netflix.
Many factors can influence actual internet connection speeds, ranging from the type of internet connection to the number of people trying to simultaneously use that connection to limits imposed by your internet service provider.
Streaming may be the great democratizer. According to data from Statista, those with the lowest household income make up the biggest share of video streaming subscribers in Canada. When broken out by income, the percentage of video streaming subscribers is:
Young Canadians between the ages of 25 to 34 are the most likely subscribers to video streaming services, according to Statista, followed by those between the ages of 35 to 44. Surprisingly, the youngest Canadian adults, those between 18 to 24 are less likely to subscribe to a streaming video game service than their older counterparts.
Take advantage of free trials to test out services. Taking the time to test out each service helps you decide what works for your household needs and cuts the creeping cost of online streaming services.
While niche streaming platforms are great for avid fans or enthusiasts, most Canadians will be happy with a service that offers a good variety. For instance, Netflix offers an expansive selection of movies, TV shows.
The results of the Finder: Consumer Sentiment Survey Q2 were collected through an online Pollfish survey conducted between April 27 and April 29, 2023. In the survey, 1,011 Canadians from across the country were asked questions about their level of financial security and plans to adjust budgets and spending. The estimated margin of error for the survey is +/- 3%, 19 out of 20 times.

Despite trying several times, I am prompted with this message when trying to submit my personal tax return through NETFILE. I have verified all information countless times now and yet I am still prompted with:
"One or more entries in your tax return require correction. The data entered is either invalid, or mandatory information is missing. If you are unable to resolve the issues, please contact your Software Developer."
My problem seems to have been resolved on its own. It definitely seems as though it was on CRA's end, as I attempted to submit the exact same, unaltered tax return the following morning and it was accepted no problem. I would suggest simply waiting a day and trying again as I did. I'm not sure if filing it in the morning had anything to do with it, but I did so on my final attempt to file and it worked. It's possible that the CRA is just receiving too many NETFILE submissions at once and that filing during non-peak times would be best.
Hi,

We ended up starting over from the beginning and reviewing all the data inserted in the forms.
The error was simply some information that was not saved (empty field) in the very beginning of the EasyStep Interview.
If anyone is experiencing this problem, please start from the beginning and review all the data in your profile,
Sorry to hear you have this problem. We have included below, for your information, our TurboTax FAQ about NETFILE. Please review the list of errors and ineligibility list included in the links to see if any of the situations apply.
