I would recommend Questrade. It will do everything you need and way way more. Super low fees, good support, based in Canada.
I’ve been investing with them for nearly 20 years.
Telus’ existing KIDC Kamloops data centre holds up to 12,500 GPUs and is capable of generating up to 25 megawatts of power. Its M3 Vancouver facility will be of similar scope, with 13,000 GPUs planned and an output of 26 megawatts. Its downtown location, however, will scale significantly higher, housing more than 50,000 GPUs at a facility capable of generating up to 100 megawatts of power.
This wording has to be a mistake. Datacentres don’t generate power. They consume it.
I tried SilverBullet and it was really good and really neat, but not for me.
Now I’m using Obsidian, which is easy enough to self host, but the company that makes it is small and indie and I decided to support them with a subscription.
I also switched to Asahi Linux 5 months ago. After decades of being an Apple fan, they are most unappealing these days.
I've been running my own email server for 15+ years. One year ago I needed to change VPS providers and thus get a totally different IP. I worried about this a bit, but actually had no issues whatsoever. Of course, I wasn't starting completely from scratch as I had the same domain, all my personal experience, and a battle-tested configuration for docker-mailserver. But yeah, the lack of IP reputation itself didn't seem to be an issue at all. Maybe I got lucky. Or maybe it's because I chose a relatively small Canadian VPS provider rather than one of the global cloud giants (I assume their IP address space gets pretty trashed with scammers).
Oh this is one to watch! Thanks for posting.
I'm currently running docker-mailserver (which is quite mature and stable) but xmox looks very interesting.
All MTAs have retries baked in, so running a self-hosted email server that receives mail is actually one of the most forgiving services in this respect. If your server is offline, the sending server will retry several times over 24-48 hours before it gives up. Even the big cloud email providers will do this.
That said, there are other aspects of running an email server that require some extra rigour, but they're more on the sending side (making sure emails you send to other people actually land in their inbox). Doable, but one of the more challenging things to self-host.
I don’t have a big problem with CloudFlare (and use their service myself for some things). But so much of the internet infrastructure is already consolidated with them. There are so many good options for domain registrars. Let’s spread things around a bit.

Pi.dev with Qwen3.6 running on a modest 6GB GPU is actually working pretty well for me. For smallish well-scoped agentic code tasks.

I like FullHost. They were my pick when I did an in-depth review of several Canadian VPS providers last year…

SilverBullet is absolutely solid, with a simple and elegant architecture. SPA app, offline support, flat file backend, etc. Highly recommended.

Is this working? Mine always gets reset to 100% after each reboot.
Edit: According to this post this is supposed to be fixed as of the latest update from a few days ago. Yay!
Toshy is an interesting piece of software that remaps keys to Macintosh conventions.

I signed up. It looks really quite nice.
From what I can tell, this is the heroic efforts of one guy. But if this is successful it will grow.
I hope they can strike a deal with a scalable Canadian VPS operator like FullHost for the CI runners.
OpenProject is what you’re looking for.
Yay! I’m following Avi and Emily now too. Although I was hoping they’d choose socialbc.ca as their mastodon server!

I hope TransLink will send OneBC the invoice for chartering that bus that whisked them off campus.
Hover.com is my favorite. Good prices and no shenanigans.
I hope Americans visiting Las Vegas start changing their money to CAD to take advantage of this little arbitrage opportunity!
