You can likely get a Virgin Mobile card for cheaper at a VM dealer. Generally anything you get from Telestial is charged a premium over regular cost.

Also, you can get a data only SIM for as little as $49

You could also get a SIM from Rogers, Fido or Chatr at your Canadian destination.

There is a Fido store on West Georgia St. and there is a Rogers store on Davie St. in Vancouver.

Check out http://www.prepaidgsm.net/en/canada.php though I do not think the information on prepaidgsm.net is totally up-to-date.
