Choosing a Phone Plan in Canada: What Newcomers Need to Know
Getting a phone plan is one of the first and most expensive steps refugees and other immigrants make after arriving in Canada, but it’s not always easy. The options can be confusing, and with connection to loved ones and access to online opportunities at stake, many newcomers have to pick the right plan quickly.
Refugee 613’s Newcomer Info Hub project is hosting a free webinar to help people supporting newcomers connect their communities with easy-to-understand information on phone plans.
