What VPN have you switched to after the Mullvad situation. I have looked at nym and ivpn. But don't know if they are any good.

I've been pretty happy with Windscribe. They are headquartered in Canada, but they have also proven they don't keep logs. https://cybersecuritynews.com/court-dismisses-criminal-charges-against-vpn-executive-affirms-no-log-policy/

If you're looking for a good comparison, I found the Techlore comparison table helpful: https://vpn.techlore.tech/

They also threatened to leave Canada if Bill C-22 passes, which I take as a good sign that they're serious.
