A prepaid Canada SIM card with an international cell phone is the most convenient and economical solution for staying in touch while in Canada. Pay the local rate for local calls and use a cellular phone in Canada like you do at home. PhoneBox Canada are probably the simplest. You can buy online an e-sim before arrival and then activate it as soon as you arrive in Canada.

Canada has some very specific and different VHF channels and you will need to be sure your VHF radio can access them. Example: Channel 21B, and 83B provide Continuous Marine Broadcast (CMB) service (in English). Most VHFs can switch between USA/International and Canada (check your manual).
