The main thing that will make you "smart" about fishkeeping is experience. That combined with a few good books and online resources is really all you need to become an "expert" at fishkeeping. That said, Tropical Fish Hobbyist (a US magazine) and Practical Fishkeeping (a UK magazine) are both very good publications that tend to be geared towards more advanced hobbyists. You should be able to get both of those in Canada, but I'm not quite sure.

I am a big fan of PFK, I find it has less advertising than TFH and seems to be written in a manner that appeals to basic fishkeepers as well as specialists. TFH does often have great articles though

I also like FAMA for Gene Lucas' articles, but unless you are interested in bettas that is probably not a great choice.

I enjoy Tropical Fish Hobbyist, and it has articles and information for all levels of fishkeeping. But it is true that it has a lot of ads.

A real life turning the pages arrives in the mail magazine. Gee. I don't buy them. Maybe I should. So I can be knowledgable.
