CANADA-WIDE ROAMING

Eeyou Mobility has a Canada-wide roaming agreement with Rogers Communications. When traveling in Canada outside the Eeyou Istchee and James Bay region, Eeyou Mobility customers can roam at no extra charge anywhere within the Rogers 4G LTE coverage areas.

Eeyou Mobility customers can also roam on the Videotron network within the Videotron 4G LTE coverage areas in Quebec and around Ottawa.

Eeyou Mobility customers can also roam in all 25 Nunavut communities and in Yellowknife on the SSi Mobile network.

When roaming off the Eeyou Mobility network and connecting to the networks of our roaming partners, customers will automatically consume the ‘Canada-wide Data” assigned to their monthly plan.
