It would depend on what carrier your with, will depend on what carriers you
can send over there.

No reason why not, but if the carrier is AT&T (or is it called Rogers in
Canada?), they may not have implemented sms thoroughly.
Just an observation based on using sms between Oz & U$A on my travels - AT&T
is woeful compared to the rest.

Sending may be ok, but on AT&T in USA receiving overseas sms is a hit and
run affair, and the carrier in Canada (if Rogers, the main carrier) is an
AT&T subsidiary, and may, or may not, have the same problems.
Of course, YMMV.

Optus has agreements to send and receive sms to most networks in Canada
as well as the US.
