How does our Canada eSIM work?
An eSIM is an embedded SIM card, and you probably already have an eSIM-compatible device. When you install an eSIM for a country or region, it lets your device connect to local networks in that area. This means your device will have data without needing Wi-Fi or paying roaming charges.
Use a Canada eSIM to stay connected
The beauty of Canadaâs provinces and territories is known around the world, with mountain views, bustling cities, and oceanside beaches.
When traveling to the Great White North, youâll want to stay in touch with friends and family back home, and tell them about all the cool sites youâre seeing. This is where a Canada eSIM can help!
A Canada eSIM provides you with local mobile data on Canadian networks so you can browse the internet, check emails, and pop onto social media to share pictures of the curious moose standing next to your rental car.
How much travel data do I need in Canada, eh?
How much data youâll need in Canada depends on how often youâll be without a solid Wi-Fi connection. So will your trip involve sticking close to a hotel or conference centre? Or will you be venturing out into the wild, where dataâs the only way to stay connected?
A Canada eSIM will keep you online anywhere you travel, from St. Johnâs to Vancouver. Feel free to start with a small data plan (1 GB) and see how it goes. You can always top up your eSIM if you need more data during your trip.
Will I pay roaming charges with a Canada eSIM?
Spend your money on cute souvenirs (like plastic beavers playing hockey on top of a decorative Tim Hortons cup), not roaming charges!
A Canada eSIM will connect you to a local network, allowing you to tell your device NOT to âroam.â Itâs easy to use your Canada eSIM on any compatible device, and have instant prepaid data.
(Just make sure you have turned off Data Roaming for your Primary SIM card to prevent unexpected roaming charges on your next bill.)

Whatâs the best time to visit Canada?
Canada is beautiful year-round, but each season has its own special magic, so you might want to plan your Canadian vacation based on what kind of weather and scenery youâd like to experience.
April to June: If you enjoy the lush spring season, you may want to visit Canada from late April through early June. Itâs especially lovely on the west coast, with its blooming trees, colourful gardens, and warm temperatures.
July and August: Yup, it gets hot during a Canadian summer. (Nope, it doesnât snow year-round.) You can experience temperatures in the high 20s/low 30s (high 60s/low 90s) in many provinces, and there are plenty of beaches so you can stay cool with a dip in the ocean.
December through March: Eager to tackle winter sports, or experience a snowstorm firsthand? From ice skating, skiing, and snowboarding to snowshoeing, sledding, and ATVing or Ski-Dooing, experience the thrill of a classic Canadian winter.
What to pack for a vacation to Canada
When youâre packing for Canada, you might not know what kind of weather to expect. It might be sunny and warm one minute, but foggy and chilly an hour later. Pack lots of layers, and donât forget these essentials âŠ
Hiking Boots: If you plan on spending a lot of time outdoors (especially in the mountains or the woods), youâre going to want a comfortable, broken-in pair of hiking boots.
Umbrella: Year-round, it might rain in Canada, and you donât want to be caught in a cold drizzle, so a light umbrella should be at the top of your packing list. (Ahem. Weâre looking at you, Vancouver.)
Fleece Jacket: Regardless of the season, a fleece jacket is handy because it can provide a snuggly outer layer on a cool summer night when youâre enjoying a beach bonfire, and it can also double as a middle layer under a heavier coat if youâre making snow sculptures in the middle of winter.
