19th May 2007, 11:21 PM

I have Verizon Wireless mobile phone service in the United States.
I will be spending a week in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. Verizon charges .
69 cents a minute for all calls while roaming in Canada and another 49
cents a minute for calls to a US #.
This is going to quickly add up for me.
Can anyone recommend a place in Vancouver or mail order rental service
that offers weekly mobile phone rentals at practical rates? It doesn't
pay for me to pay more than $30 for basic rental fees for the week
(usage not included).
Thanks
