I am travelling to Europe this summer and am wondering whether / when there will be a roaming package available to us?

sorry, PM does not have roaming other than US. Soz no roaming service at all

if your phone supports, best to use travel eSIM for data. If not, the get local prepaid data sim

For voice, download VoIP app Fongo and use it tomale and receive calls and text (using another tnimner assigned by Fongo)

When we vacationed in Europe, we used an Orange Holiday esim. For €19.99, we got 14 days and 12GB of mobile data. Compared to most other esims like Airalo, Orange also provides you with a real telephone number which allows you to make unlimited calls and texts pretty much anywhere in Europe. It also provides you with 30 international minutes and 200 international texts to make calls or texts back to Canada. Having a real phone to make calls to the hotel, restaurants etc. or even to my credit card company is very useful. You can download the Orange app and purchase the esim while still in Canada. It will automatically activate once you land in Europe. Have a good trip.

I tried Airalo last year but should have activated it before leaving. When I got to Europe I had difficulty connecting, I think because of my location, and gave up when they recommended making changes to my phone set up. I will try again but from home first this year. Having said that, I was just wondering whether anything was in the works with Public Mobile to add this service. Sounds like they are not.

I understand that. I was wondering whether there was any plan to add this service. Sounds like no.
