Recently made a trip in our RV to the Magdalen Islands off PEI, Canada. Public Mobile was the only reliable service available to us on the Maggies during hurricane Dorian. A great service and reassurance in 60 knots of wind and rain!

Public Mobile in my opinion is the absolute best valued carrier in Canada! The plans are incredibly cheap for what they include. I would never switch back to any other carrier.
