Changing your email frequently is a lot of work — especially these days. Just about everything you do is tied to the Internet in some way — social media, banking, and even employment. When you sign up for a new free Canadian email account, you’ll want to take the time to choose your email wisely. That way, you don’t find yourself having to change an email you regret down the road.
