Okay so buy a Phone from rogers then take the Sim card out and place it into your Unlocked iPhone then you should be able to use it just like you would use the phone that you bought they think you are using the phone that you bought but truly you are using the Unlocked iPhone

Alright thanks guys for all the help!

i plan on just buying a phone from a bud and unlocking it to save money because i dont think 50 bucks a month is really worth it..
