Quebecor’s Videotron is making some new moves in the wireless space, debuting new unlimited Canada-France plans, starting from $50 per month.
According to Videotron, you can “use your cell phone in France or the United States as you would in Canada, thanks to data that travels with you.”
Check out the plans below:
Both plans include a 100GB annual data bonus in Canada and full data speeds “at all times.” You can use your unlimited talk, text and data plan in Canada and France, which is handy for travellers who frequent the latter.
By subscribing to this Canada-France plan, Videotron says it saves travellers the hassle of switching SIM cards or provider when they travel abroad to Paris, for example.
It’ll be interesting if Rogers, Telus and Bell deviate from standard Canada-US-Mexico unlimited plans to also include France like we’re seeing here.
Yesterday, Quebecor announced Videotron’s Fizz would be expanding to Western Canada, with a beta coming for B.C. and Alberta.

The French people have their 250GB for 20€ per month with Free already, they don’t need any of our ridiculous plans.
I must have missed the part where these plans were for people living in France. It’s also easy to cover a country as small as France and have it cost pennies. People need to stop comparing us to other places in the world that don’t have the same network performance, technology or coverage area and land mass.
Then why the French Free plan includes 25 GB of roaming in Canada (among 100 other destinations / countries) ?
If it was THAT expensive, they could not afford to include Canada at such a low price and still make money out of it.
Their price is CAD 30, with the 20% sales taxes included.
… You’re joking, right?
