Cell Phone Coverage in Canada

Make sure your cell phone will work in Vancouver! Here are a few tips to help ensure you can connect to the office and home via your cell phone while on site at the Annual Meeting.

  1. Contact your corporate/business or personal cell phone account representative, or visit a local wireless store and ask a representative to walk you through the steps necessary to activate your cell phone and plan while in Vancouver.

    Ask your provider about:
    • Coverage maps for national, North America, Canada and international voice and data plans
    • Your current plan, rates and costs; understand the rates and charges to upgrade or change your plan to provide voice/data coverage in Vancouver
    • Whether changes to your plan will incur immediately, or if charges are prorated
    • How roaming coverage works; make sure you know and are comfortable with the cell and data charges
    • Messaging (text/picture) costs and charges while in Vancouver
    • How to update your device to register changes to your plan


  2. You can also visit your wireless provider online to better understand international calling plans, charges, coverage maps and more.
