As it works in ON, I'm sure it also works in BC.

Voice, Text, attachments, and Data will all work. 

Doesn't support all Telus bands so you won't get great service in all areas (where base stations use lower-frequency directional coverage) and you won't get great 4G speeds (because fewer bands equals lower overall bandwidth). Not a big deal if you're in an urban area with dense coverage because you'll get handed off to whatever towers are available. Not an issue if you have a "3G"plan because it's actually capped 4G with a fairly constant data rate.

 

Your phone software might impose sucky limitations, however. The only ways to find out are product reviews or actual first-hand usage.

The 3G will be fine. The 4G LTE is a little light.
