Replace home-carrier data roaming without collecting or swapping a physical SIM. Skip contracts, airport kiosk queues and ID checks. You only need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone.
Keep your own number while the eSIM handles data. Your existing SIM stays in your phone for calls, SMS and bank codes, while WhatsApp keeps your current number.
Match your plan to your Canadian route. Short plans suit Toronto or Montréal city breaks, while longer plans suit travellers combining Vancouver, the Rockies and other stops.
Arrive prepared with your eSIM installed before departure, ready to connect in Canada. Aim to get online before passport control instead of hunting for airport Wi-Fi after landing.
What it is not: a phone number. For a local number to receive sign-up codes or bookings, add a virtual number in Canada next to the data plan.
Canada Travel eSIM Networks
Plans use Rogers, Bell, Telus and SaskTel, all with 5G where available. That covers the national networks and Saskatchewan's regional one.

Check that your phone supports eSIM and is unlocked, install on Wi-Fi at home, and keep your own SIM for calls and bank codes. The eSIM carries data only.
Esim for Canada Travel Across the Border
This plan covers Canada only. For a Canada eSIM travel itinerary that also crosses into the United States, pick a regional plan that includes both, or add a separate US eSIM.
