    I had to change phones when 3G was shut down in Manitoba because even though my phone could technically do VoLTE, it was a US model which wasn’t enabled to do VoLTE in Canada.

      Yeah, Fizz told me the same thing in Québec last year, except that I have a Chinese phone from Mexico. I told them it was e-waste generation, that I’d keep mine until the last minute, and would just change provider and/or phone when it would stop working.

      I guess I was lucky because a few weeks before the shutdown, the VoLTE icon appeared and it “magically” became compatible.
