For coverage, Bell Mobility has Telus beat out by a wide margin. Bell has seamless coverage across the Trans Canada Highway, except for Newfoundland. Once you get into the interior of Newfoundland, all you can expect is occasional analogue coverage. Same for Cape Breton.
As for ISP, we've been using NetRover for years: $17/month for unlimited access. While NetRover might have good local access in most Canadian cities; AOL probably has superior local coverage. Duh.
With Bell Mobility CDMA, coverage has been a non-issue. We've camped along side other RVers in both Canada and the US. While we were always getting a full four-bar signal with Bell; alternate systems couldn't receive any kind of signal whatsover!
However, once you cross the border to the south, along with roaming charges and long-distant charges, et al; you can reasonably expect connection charges to rise to about $3 per minute!! :-(
