What does Starlink really cost the first year?
Realistic year-1 budget for the most popular setup (Residential 100 + Standard dish):
- Dish (one-time): $349 CAD
- 12 months Residential 100: $75 × 12 = $900 CAD
- Total year 1: $1,249 CAD (≈ $104/month averaged)
- Year 2 and beyond: $900/year (~$75/month)
If you rent the dish at $15/month instead of buying: $90/month total, but you keep zero equipment if you cancel.
How does Starlink compare to other Canadian providers?
| Provider | Speed | Monthly | Available rural? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starlink Residential 100 | 100-250 Mbps | $75 | Everywhere |
| Bell Fibe 100 (urban) | 100/100 Mbps | $90+ | Cities only |
| Bell DSL rural | 5-25 Mbps | $80+ | Where copper exists |
| Telus Fibre | 150-1000 Mbps | $95+ | BC & AB urban |
| Rogers Ignite | 150-1500 Mbps | $90+ | Cable-served areas |
| Xplore satellite (legacy) | 10-50 Mbps | $80-120 | Rural only |
| SaskTel Fibre | 150-1000 Mbps | $90+ | Saskatchewan urban |
If you live in a city with fibre, fibre is usually cheaper and faster. Starlink wins decisively for rural Canada, cottages, farms, RVs, and anywhere fibre or cable doesn’t reach.
