Just to add to an older thread here... I'm on the Verizon North America's Choice 900 plan (900 anytime, 1000 wkend/night minute) for $89.99 - a same plan can be had for $59.99 (450 anytime minutes instead). I travel between YYC-SAN, LAX-YVR often so it's AWESOME. No roaming charges, no LD charges. Total freedom ... US->CAN, CAN->CAN, CAN->US, and of course, US->US. I heard Mexico is also included but never had to exercise that option. This is by far the best plan as it piggybacks off of Telus Mobility ... (not surprising since Verizon owns something like 40% of Telus) - With Telus being the best coverage by far in Canada, and likewise with Verizon in the US, IMO there is no other choice for me.
