Hulu isn’t available in Canada because Hulu cannot offer content from various movie and TV production companies for copyright and licensing reasons. Hulu’s deals restrict its content to being seen in the U.S.
To make that happen, Hulu utilizes geo-blocking, a technology that checks a visitor’s IP address and other data to determine whether the connection is from within the USA. Hulu’s system blocks when someone connects from Canada or another country – if they try.
Many award winning shows and movies have made Hulu a top streaming service. Hulu is only available in the U.S., and despite its popularity, it’s not possible. So if you are in Canada, you won’t be able to make an account, and pay for a subscription, and watch Hulu, without a virtual private network (VPN).
