RE: Cellular Internet Access in British Columbia

I use my Verizon plan and just add on Canada to the US plan for the month I'm in BC. It's a pricey add on, $20 extra for the phones and $100 for the data, limited to 200 MB. The Verizon US data plan is $50, for 5 GB. I looked several years ago for a month to month data plan in CA but did not find one at the time.

Verizon is said to have the best coverage on the inside passage. You will still find many spots with no coverage. If you really need coverage for as much of the time as you can get, be sure to get a data stick/modem that can utilize an outside antenna, and an antenna and booster as needed.
