See above:
Roaming rates

With Fido, calls made in the U.S. cost just 20� US a minute: a single rate
that is simple and affordable and applies to all the local and long-distance
calls you make within North America. And since roaming is activated
automatically for all Fido customers, you don't have to contact Customer
Service before crossing the border.
