How many times do we need to type that the phone just works in Canada without anything being done to it?

I can confirm that a AT&T Go phone worked just fine in Quebec City. It ran on Rogers' network. I assume it will work fine in Montreal too. Phone was like $12 or something ridiculous like that. It will end up costing me a bit more than $100 for the first year, since I started with a zero...

I'm still very nervous when I visit with SP's. I think a severe language barrier would push it into creepy/exploitative realm for me, and I don't find that arousing at all, so I ask for English speakers On the other hand, I can still see the appeal of communicating strictly through other...

Income tax evasion is the charge of choice when nothing else will stick. See Al Capone, Spiro Agnew, etc.

Fake pictures, perhaps?

The last time I was in Montreal it was ~ 95 degrees, but I still ended up freezing because: (A) I couldn't figure out the hotel thermostat and (B) my troubles were compounded by a utter failure to translate into Celsius! I'm going to bring a conversion chart next time. The previous time, I was...

humor detection has apparently lost sensitivity!

Thank you CR. I was aware of how cheap a prepaid could be for those of us who don't really use it much. I just wanted to confirm I could find one that worked in Montreal before I bought my next one. Thanks again for the specifics.

Thank you. Finally. Please don't take this response as ungrateful, but I don't know how many times I had to say my preference was for a single phone, as cheap as possible, and that I didn't want to switch out SIM cards. I'm not a Luddite, but I like to play one when it comes to phones...

Thanks for the replies. I'd like to avoid GSM and SIM's because I don't know what they mean! I like technology, but am not interested in the cult of phone worshipping. Just not my deal. Anyhoo, I would probably use my phone for 50-100 minutes per YEAR,. If so, I could live with my minutes...

Subject pretty much says it all--I'm looking for a prepaid phone that will work when I am in Montreal. I apologize if this belongs in some other section. I am not a cell phone person. I have a phone for emergencies and that is it. I had a Tracfone and was perfect for me, I never used the...

Hey just a few random bits and questions from an outsider. I am in no way trying to start anything, I just have a slightly better sense of history than the average dolt and I am very curious to hear some Canadian opinions on a topic that I know very little about. 1. What do you call the French...

Well, your description was "spot-on." Except, I never think of '98 as a long, long time ago!

Maria, Was it "Dangerous Beauty?"
