Telus-owned Public Mobile has launched a new 50GB plan in what looks to match an offer from Videotron’s Fizz.
Public Mobile updated its website this morning to add a new $29/50GB plan with 4G data, available Canada-wide. This is a limited-time offer that ends on March 31, 2025.
You’ll remember that yesterday we told you about how Public Mobile launched a new $26/20GB 4G plan.
Here are Public Mobile’s 4G Plans (all Canada-wide) as of today:
If you’re going to pay $29, you may as well get the 5G plan with Canada-US-Mexico talk, text and data. It’s worth pointing out Fizz has LTE data speeds while Public Mobile’s offer has 4G.

"If you’re going to pay $29, you may as well get the 5G plan with Canada-US-Mexico talk, text and data."
Why? It has 60% LESS data (50gb vs 20gb). Unless you know, for a certainty, that you will be spending a lot of time in the States or Mexico, it does not make sense to give up 30 gigs of data at the same price point.
TANDEM SIM CARD – EUROPE .
Use Tandem and use two SIM cards on two different mobile phones with one phone number and within one subscription.
You can have a second SIM card just in case: to another phone, to a modem, to an organizer.
Service Details
The phone number for each card is the same, although they are independent and do not share a common memory. This means that in each of them:
Phone numbers in the address book must be entered separately
You can set different PIN codes.
Both Tandem cards allow you to alternately initiate and accept calls. Phone calls can be made from both devices , but not simultaneously.
Remember the Public Mobile advertisement… Different Is Calling…. matching other providers isn't different.
