Default Canadians

Do you have Verizon and Sprint service in Canada?

If not

What companys offer wireless internet access for a laptop?

I really couldn't find what I was looking for on the subject.

Thank You

We have Sprint here, but I don't know for sure who does the wireless internet access. Check Rogers.com, they're a big time service provider.

What part of the country?

The big cable ISPs are Videotron (Quebec), Shaw (Western Canada + Northern Ontario) and Rogers (rest of the country).

Oh and Bell for DSL.

Do you mean wireless throughout the city? I don't think anyone does that. Users set up their own wireless router (ISP is irrelevant) at home and uses hotspots like Starbucks elsewhere.
