    As I said, the E65 is NOT COMPATIBLE with any Canadian networks. UTMS is another way to say 3G and the E65 only supports Band 1. Canadian 3G uses a combination of Band 2 and 5. The E65 physically does not support those frequencies.

That's an ancient phone (2007). The Nokia E65 is not compatible with Canadian networks. GSM was only available Rogers/Fido and that network was shut down in 2018. The phone uses a 3G frequency that is also not available in North America either. I have a Nokia C5-00 that I'd like to use but it has the exact same issue.
