If you are a Google Voice user let me inform you that Google has posted an important message on Google Voice Blog telling that calling to Canada is allowed now for free. Read below…
In addition to making free long distance calls within the continental US, you can now call Canada for free through Google Voice. We offered this feature in GrandCentral previously, and in an effort to provide as many useful features as we can for free, we’re happy to bring those free calls to Canada to Google Voice users as well.
You can initiate calls from your inbox online, from our new mobile apps, or by dialing your own Google Voice number from one of your phones and selecting option 2 to place a call.
Please note that Google Voice is only available in the US, and you’ll need a working US phone to setup a Google Voice account.

Well if you were waiting for this congratulations, but another problem Google hasn’t resolved yet is letting users forward calls to international numbers. Actually if you try to register Google Voice from Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and all US territories you will receive an error telling you that you can’t register from an international location.
When Google will fix this huh?
