The need to stay connected has never been stronger for Canadian travellers, but it comes at a cost. Roaming charges are fees that your provider will charge you if you use your mobile phone outside of your provider’s coverage area. These charges happen often and travellers are looking for ways to avoid them. Text messages, phone calls, social media, video streaming, emails, video calls, maps - it’s hard not to use your phone when traveling.
