Hi, we are off to Canada in 8 weeks and I'm looking for a sim that I can use whilst I'm there. It will predominantly for data, I will make some calls when there but they will be limited. We are travelling with family so it will mostly to stay in touch with them. I've used 3 network previously when I've been in the USA with the 'feel at home' service but if I understand it correctly Canada is not one of the included countries. If you can offer any advice it would be very much appreciated. Thanks

    I'm not sure which UK networks offer economical roaming in Canada, but you can quite easily buy a Canadian SIM. There are several MVNOs selling SIMs with usage package for $20-30 or so, according to your needs, they have booths in shopping malls, also 7-Eleven etc. Also they are more useful than roaming on a UK network if you need to make/receive local calls.
