I called 611, and 10 minutes later, I had full speed data.

With the North America plan, you are never throttled in Canada. That doesn't mean you're always going to get amazing speeds, since it depends on the network and your signal strength. But that's the same as how a Rogers subscriber could have poor speeds because Rogers has poor coverage in an area.
Ahh, very cool. If you're North America travel mostly then - I can see how this would be best. For me, it's mostly US and Int'l (with sporadic Canada/Mexico). So once my Google Fi invite clears I'm likely off to try them.
