if not using your number is not an issue, then you can look into freedompop and knowroaming.

@sheepe, its always cheaper to get a local sim card at the location.
You may be able to get one at the airport there.
As an alternative, you may want to download Fongo before leaving Canada, so that when you are there and if you need to make or recieve calls or texts from home (Canada), you can do so wherever Wifi is available.
Thanks

As I always tell everyone, it is always best to shop locally when travelling. In the case of Public Mobile, there is no choice in the matter anyway. As for using the current phone number, I think it is this restrictiveness that has caused people to do less calling and use other forms of communication.

Unfortuantley you are out of luck if you want to use your number while you are travelling
No option will aloow you to keep your phone number and have service. The add ons will not work, its only for USA. If you want cell service, you will need to buy a local sim from Mexcio, and use a number given to you from them, you will not be able to port your number over.

No unfortunately you're out of luck.
You're best bet is getting a simcard there or forwarding your number to an app number for your trip duration (TextNow/Fongo etc).
