Cell Phone in Canada

We will be traveling to Canada this summer and I have heard that once in Canada the CP starts "romaing". What do I need to call the US and save on phone cost? Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you

Call your provider and see if they have any "plans" or "options" that will cover you while in Canada.

When you get to Canada, buy a phone card and use that. We paid $10 for one in 2007 for our trip to Alaska. Worked like a champ and we had about $2 left over.

If you have an iPhone or any other phone with data on it, make sure you turn off data roaming. It took us a few very large phone bills to figure out where the charges were coming from.
