No other carrier we checked has a senior plan, and there's no federal free phone program. A cheap regular plan above usually wins.

Talk & text plan. Use home Wi-Fi for everything else.

1 to 5 GB a month.

Video calls out

10 GB or more.

Switching tips

Keep your number: sign up with the new carrier first, then give them your number. Don't cancel the old plan first.
Same towers for less: Koodo and Public Mobile use Telus, Fido and Chatr use Rogers, Virgin Plus and Lucky use Bell.
Your phone: phones sold in Canada since December 2017 are unlocked. Need a new one? A certified pre-owned phone costs far less than new.
