if you have the Canada/Mx/us  plan you can use your service in any of the 3 countries to talk/text/use data. To use data, make sure to enable Roaming. In us, you'll be connecting to AT&T, T-Mobile or Verizon. For talk in us, you MUST have a cellphopne that is VoLTE enabled and is recognised as VoLTE enabled with Public Mobile. Here's some quick referrence with a device checker at the bottom.

There's no worry about roaming fees or extra costs later on. In conclusion...while in Canada, you can call most any Cdn/Mx/us number. While in us, you can call most any us/Cdn/Mx number. While i Mex, you can call most any Cdn/us or Mx number. You can use data everywhere in those 3. You'll be able to send / rec message from anyone on planet Earth. Use that plan just like you would at home.

That’s amazing ! I was under the impression that my Canada-US-Mexico plan only allowed me to call out for free. Am I understanding correctly that my plan would fully work data, texting, voice if I’m in the USA?

enable roaming so you can use data. Your cell will probably connect to the better of AT&T, Telcel or Movistar. To dial most any Cdn number, dial thusly  001 / area code / number.

No roaming fee or any other unexpected fees later on.
