Best data + long distance / roaming plans?

Hey folks,

There always seems to be a decent deals on phone plans but I've not seen good roaming and long distance plans attached to these plans.

I have a Rogers corporate plan $55 6gigs / Canada-wide plan - but it's horrible when traveling or even making long distance calls on it.

Thus I'm looking for another plan to go with my first, or to entirely replace mine.

Long distance minutes / roaming data is important to me - any suggestions?

I've even thought about buying US plans and just using it here... open to ideas

Thanks

At home I use Fido's tablet plan to get 3GB/month of data on my phone, and then use Fongo for voice/SMS over the Wifi/data connection. A nice bonus with this is when traveling I just swap out the Fido SIM card for a local SIM with data, and my Canadian Fongo number comes along with me to the new SIM. This is always far cheaper than the roaming charges any Canadian carrier will hit you with, and Fongo has unlimited free calling to Canadian numbers, no matter where in the world you happen to be located when you call.
