Google Home is coming to Canada “this summer.”

During the Google I/O developer conference Wednesday it was announced that Google Home will be coming to Canada “this summer.”

Similar to the popular Amazon Echo (which is still not available in Canada), Google Home is a voice assistant that can answer questions, play music, control connected devices (like Hue bulbs), plus a few other things.

Along with Canada, Google Home will also be released in Australia, Japan, France and Germany.

No exact date was given as to when Google Home will be available in Canada or the other announced countries.
