When using Webflow in Canada, the site will be served by servers in Canada provided by Fastly. Fastly is a content delivery network (CDN) that Webflow leverages to ensure fast and reliable delivery of websites to users around the world. CDN servers are strategically placed in different locations globally to serve website content from the closest server to the user, reducing latency and improving performance.

Fastly has a network presence in Canada, specifically in cities like Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. This means that when a website is hosted on Webflow and accessed by users in Canada, the content will be served from Fastly's Canadian servers. These servers are fully compliant with Canadian data protection regulations and offer reliable and secure content delivery.

It's worth noting that while Fastly is the primary CDN used by Webflow, there might be other CDN providers involved in the delivery process depending on the specific requirements and configurations of the website. However, Fastly's robust network ensures that websites hosted on Webflow in Canada benefit from fast and localized content delivery.

In summary, when using Webflow in Canada, the site will be served by servers in Canada provided by Fastly, a reliable and globally distributed CDN.
