Canadian roaming rates are so utterly shit the SIM card comes out the second I'm on the plane. It's like $15 per day to roam in the EU. Not per month, per day

  > Canadian roaming rates are so utterly shit the SIM card comes out the second I'm on the plane. It's like $15 per day to roam in the EU. Not per month, per day, let that sink in... I can get a plan in Europe for 30€ month that puts my Canadian plan ($90/month) to shame... That's cheap. My Austrian provider charges 1 Euro per 100 KB when roaming in Canada (no - that's not a typo). So for 10 GB that's a cheap 100k Euros.

  Ok, I see. That's nuts. I've been to Canada with my EU SIM but apart from each SMS costing few cents instead of being free if didn't cost me much to keep using 2fa. I currently have plan for 22€ that gives me unlimited everything in my country (maybe there is cap to minutes but I don't call much) including unlimited data + 10gb data in EU. I remember that in Canada I was paying through the nose for some basic pathetic plan though.
