Not Montreal. Videotron is the AWS rights holder in QC. Wind won't ever move into Montreal; Wind and Mobilicity's footprint in Quebec is limited to Gatineau. My brother lives right next to one of their transmitter towers in Gatineau.
Oddly enough Videotron isn't all that competitive in Quebec. I am not sure why.
Wind's already expanded outside the GTA in Ontario - Kingston, Barrie, London, Niagara are all on, next is apparently Belleville, Peterborough, and Windsor. Winnipeg and Victoria have towers up, should be available soon.
The only place I seem to go and have zero coverage is Saskatoon. That being said, I agree with the poster above that paying 20 cents a min is similar to the paygo phone my wife and I were using before Wind. My wife is on Rogers because she needed consistent coverage and signed a contract before Wind came along. I'm trying to convince her to switch, tough sell though. I have a "better" value on my $40 HMP than she gets for $100.
