Mullvad gives you a discount if you pay with crypto, and monero is supposed to be the private crypto. What is the best way to get Monero? I'm in Canada

Go to whatever service/exchange is easiest for you to buy a common crypto that has low fees (either Litecoin or Doge) and use https://changenow.io/ to swap to monero and send to your own wallet.

Use Guiwallet on desktop or for mobile you can use either cake wallet or monerujo wallet to hodl your monero.

Just transfer $20 into monero every couple of months and use it to buy time on mullvad as you need
