My kid has gone to university in another town.  Do we have to do anything to avoid long distance charges?  We have the 100 minutes province wide plan.  Does it matter she is in another town?

How long have you had this plan? There was brief province-wide experiment here a couple years ago. Maybe you're still on it. Otherwise, yes, all plans except an odd single Quebec plan are Canada-wide.

Thanks for the correct. The later it get's at night I use the wrong wording. Getting old sucks! lol

The $15 plan is a Canada-wdie calling plan. 

Hypopethetically, someone on a plan that only has province-wide calling can still use the plan while in any province, but the customer's plan would only include outgoing calls to that same province.

That plan actually includes Canada-wide calling, not just province-wide calling.

There's no roaming in Canada on Public Mobile (they have a nationwide network you can access), the only thing to consider is whether or not there's a long distance charge. All plans today, except for maybe 1 exception plan in Quebec, offer nationwide calling.

Long story short, you're good.

Thanks!

Nope. The plan follows. Roaming Long distance in Canada included.
