We Help Local Providers Thrive So Canadians Have Choice

Canadians deserve more choice for their TV, internet, and phone services. 

At CCSA, we work to equip local, independent providers from coast to coast with the tools and resources they need to create a better-connected Canada. We amplify their voices within government to foster a more competitive environment. Our goal is simple: to help these providers grow and compete in today’s complex marketplace. Because when local providers thrive, Canadians have more choice.

Our Members

Over 500,000 Canadians rely on the 90+ independent internet, TV, and phone providers CCSA supports — from community co-ops and family businesses to municipalities and Indigenous-owned providers. CCSA members deliver essential and reliable services to their communities.
