1) What modems can I use for DSL service in Ontario and Quebec?

"G.992.1 and G.992.2" compatible modems can be used, please confirm with your new ISP

2) I'm on the Nortel Platform (in Ontario and Quebec) if I switch will I still be able to use a Nortel modem?

Generally speaking when you move to a new provider the equipment you connect to at the Central Office (CO) gets replaced. Meaning your Nortel Networks modem will no longer work and you will be switched to a "G.992.1 and G.992.2" compatible service.
