Why North Star
Canadian IT support, grounded in Prince George and Grande Prairie.
North Star supports organizations remotely across Canada and dispatches field service from Prince George, BC and Grande Prairie, AB. One Canadian team handles managed IT, cybersecurity, cloud, projects, websites, and custom software.
North Star was built in Prince George and expanded its dispatch coverage through Grande Prairie. Working from Northern and Western Canada taught us how to support remote sites, field teams, multi-location businesses, and organizations that cannot wait days for a distant vendor to understand their environment.
Most support is delivered remotely across Canada, so location does not limit access to our team. When work needs hands on site, our technicians dispatch from Prince George and Grande Prairie or coordinate planned project coverage. The same team remains accountable from discovery and documentation through day-to-day support.
The same team, not a ticket number.
We learn how your business operates before we recommend a stack or touch a configuration. That context makes support faster, projects safer, and technology decisions easier to defend.
Discovery before configuration
Our onboarding process starts with a genuine discovery phase, users, devices, software, workflows, and the things that have been annoying you for years. The output is a documented environment baseline you own, regardless of what happens next.
Founder-led and Canadian-staffed
Your service relationship is led in Canada, billed in CAD, and designed around Canadian privacy, security, and business requirements.
We don't oversell
If a client asks for something they don't need, we say so. If a cheaper tool does the same job as an expensive one, we recommend it. Transparency is not a marketing word for us, it shows up in monthly reports, itemised proposals, and phone calls where we tell you something you don't want to hear.
Documentation you can actually use
Every runbook, network diagram, and vendor contract belongs to the client. If you ever leave, you leave informed.
Teams of 5 to 200 users, wherever they operate in Canada.
5 to 200 users
We focus on organizations between 5 and 200 users across Canada. Our strongest sectors include construction, forestry, professional services, healthcare, nonprofit, and resource industries—teams that cannot afford downtime or unclear ownership.
Field offices and cross-border teams
If you have field offices, remote sites, or teams working across provincial borders, you already know how complicated IT can get. That complexity is where we are most useful.
Remote across Canada, dispatched from two cities
Our field engineers dispatch from Prince George, BC and Grande Prairie, AB. Remote-first support covers clients nationwide, while on-site work is scheduled where geography, scope, and timing make it practical.

Where to go from here.
This page explains who we are. These are the pages that explain the work.
Managed IT services.
Helpdesk, monitoring, patching, security and vendor management, priced per user per month across Canada. Start with managed IT services, or see what it costs.
Multi-site and regional rollouts.
Businesses running several locations need one standard applied everywhere, not a different setup per branch. That is covered under multi-location IT, including regional rollouts.
On-site deployment and projects.
Hardware refreshes, network installs, cabling and office moves, scheduled rather than improvised. See IT project services and the communities we cover.
Cybersecurity and compliance.
Endpoint detection, email security, awareness training and the evidence your insurer asks for. See cybersecurity services and IT compliance.
