i drive a truck over the road and go to canada all the time. my solution is to put the iphone in airplane mode and buy a international calling card at any of the truck stops you will find up there. that way i can call home for pennies a minute. canada still believes in pay phones so it is not hard to find a phone and you could check your voice mail easily. i normally will purchase a 10.00 card in canada which comes to about 8.00 after the exchange rate. though about getting a pre paid cell up there but its just too easy to use the calling card and pay phones to justify the extra cost

hope this helps and good luck on your trip
