Absolutely! The cheapest prepaid GSM service in Canada that I know of is 7-11 SpeakOut at 20¢/min local (outgoing and incoming) and 30¢/minute long distance within Canada/US. Airtime is available in $25, $50 and $100 increments and is good for 365 days. They use the Rogers network.

The main issue with SpeakOut is that they don't sell their SIMs separately. You have to buy a Nokia phone from them, however, from time to time they have promotions where you get the phone free if you buy $100 airtime. In September they were offering the Nokia 1600b under such a promotion. The phone is unlocked but it only works on 850/1800 (NA) bands.
