Date.ca
Date.ca is an online dating service aimed at assisting Canadian singles in finding friendship, romance, and love with the help of the internet. A part of the giant Spark Networks, they maintain a large database of members around the world for you to meet. Registration is free, and like all Spark Networks sites, as quick and as easy as it gets.
With free membership, you can create your profile, upload up to four photos, and search your area for members online, or delve into the profiles of other members. You may ‘click’ the ones that you like, or add them to your ‘favorites’ list.
You can also ‘flirt’ with other members, up to 30 per day, but only once with any given member. Other members can email you, if you’re a free member, but to read your emails or answer them, you’ll need to upgrade to a paid membership. It’s a good way to see who’s interested before you upgrade.
With paid membership, of course, come all the search and communication tools that Date.ca has to offer. These include email, real-time chat, message boards, audio/video messaging, and E-cards among others. In addition, your profile gets placed at the top of search results, meaning that you’ll be seen more often, and by more members. It’s all about exposure.
Advanced search capability is available, allowing you to search by gender, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, marital status, geography (right down to within one mile of your location), or any other feature that might be found in a member’s profile.
Even before you register as a free member, Date.ca provides you with a wealth of help and information to make your experience in online dating a success. Their ‘Date Guide’ is jam packed with articles that cover the concerns of a ‘newbie’ right through how to maintain your career, and balance it with a romantic life. Dozens of back issues are archived on the site for you to use.
As a part of the Spark Networks array of dating sites, which operates several specialized online dating venues, Date.ca has put a lot of thought, time, and effort into creating a comfortable, easy to use service, where you’ll find every advantage you need to meet the right person online.

From Date.ca.com:
“Spark Networks and Date.ca are leading providers of online personals in the United States and internationally. Our communities offer convenient and safe places for likeminded singles to connect. Many of these connections lead to long term relationships and, quite often, marriage.
Because our extensive member profiles allow consumers to ‘screen’ potential dates before meeting them, they save time and increase the likelihood of successful matches. Our services are broadly affordable and offer a wider range of potential companions. Of course, they are also accessible 24 hours a day.”
