Definitely was charged the new rates for using Roger Wireless in Canada. Since I will likely only be traveling occassionally to Canada on business, it was the most cost effective solution for wireless calls.

If (BIG IF) you have T-MO post paid US, their roaming rate per minute in CANADA is supposedly

Rate per minute:
$0.49
plus applicable long distance charges
GPRS coverage: Yes

Guessing this is with world class roaming. If applicable, you may want to call.

Another solution for Canada is to pick up a Rogers or Fido card on Ebay and then either sell it as I did OR keep it going if you regularly travel their. Ours was a vacation.

T-MO prepaid DOES NOT ROAM, even to CANADA.
