- Canada-wide long distance
- Unlimited Canada/USA/International SMS/MMS
- Unlimited 5PM evenings and weekends
- 200 anytime minutes
- 200MB of data ($5/250MB overages)
- Call display, voicemail

Fido introduced a similar plan back in February of this year as a “promo” but it only had 200 daytime minutes. If you’re a super light data user, this might be up your alley. Let us know if you’re going to jump on this.
